ZEE5, ALT BALAJI’S SERI LSD FEATUR A GAY DOCTOR CHARACTER
LGBTQ+ reprentatn Indian TV has e a long way sce the first gay uple appeared Star Pl serial "Maryada... Ayh Shrivastava, bt known for Kalank and OTT seri Abhay 2 is playg a gay doctor Zee5 and Alt Balaji’s LSD – Love, Sndal & Doctors, reports The Tribune. This guy is very nocent, pure and gay.
It's been over a sce the first gay uple appeared on Indian televisn.
It is rehg to see ALTBalaji's Ro and Jugal outle a homosexual romance but, still somewhat feels like Ekta Kapoor's saas-bahu serials. Where gays are only ed as dispensable ic reliefs, gets kd of hard to troduce a ser character who is also queer.

Now, Ekta Kapoor has tried her hand at pickg up the subject of homosexual romance wh her new show Ro and Jugal, which is available on ALTBalaji. As rehg as is to see someone try and normalise homosexualy, I wish Ekta had gone another way wh the story.
The story revolv around Jugal, a closeted gay man who has trouble ftg among his heterosexual iends. Wh dialogu like “You might be gay, Jugs, par tujhe ladkiyo ke baare me kuch bhi nahi pata hai, ” the show seems very close-md s approach. On the pl si, at least some people would fd the homophobia very relatable.
However, also highlights how securi, trmas, ambns, and other factors shape a person's wrers have done a fantastic job of explorg self-hatred and homophobia this & Jugal.
