Anupama Solanki, known for her roles in various TV shows like “Daayan” and “Vighnaharta Ganesha,” has expressed her strong support for same-sex marriage and LGBTQ+ rights in India. She believes that the recent refusal by the Supreme Court of India to grant legal recognition to same-sex marriages is a significant legal setback for the LGBTQ+ community.
Anupama Solanki shared her own experiences, reminiscing about her childhood when she and her friends used to make fun of eunuchs. She emphasized that society, including parents and teachers, failed to teach the value of treating every individual with respect. Anupama recognized that eunuchs, like all humans, deserve respect, acceptance, and equal rights.
The actress highlighted a significant contradiction in society’s treatment of the LGBTQ+ community. She mentioned her portrayal of the character of God Mohini, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, on the popular TV show “Vighnaharta Ganesha.” While such divine representations are revered, society often withholds acceptance from eunuchs and the LGBTQ+ community.
Anupama Solanki firmly advocated for the full acceptance of same-sex marriage, noting that it is a necessary step forward. She acknowledged the challenges and concerns surrounding this issue in India. Anupama also expressed hope, emphasizing that even in foreign countries, adopting children from orphanages is a common choice, and India, evolving into “Bharat,” must broaden its thinking to achieve global recognition and acceptance.
