New Delhi: India cricketer Gautam Gambhir, who is known for his strong views, recently dressed like a transgender to express his support to the community.
He was looking completely adorable and more than his looks, his gesture won millions of hearts on social media.
The pictures of Gambhir, clad in a saree, with a bindi, are going viral on the internet. He not only decked up like a transgender but also got rakhis tied by transgender persons Abhina Aher and Simran Shaikh, during Hijra Habba, an annual event of the transgender community.
The cricketer also took to Twitter and posted some pictures.
He wrote, “It’s not about being a man or a woman. It’s about being a HUMAN.” With proud transgenders Abhina Aher and Simran Shaikh and their Rakhi love on my hand. I’ve accepted them as they are. Will you? #respecttransgenders (sic)”
Recently, in a historic judgement, the Supreme Court ruled that consensual gay sex is not a crime.
