Indian film industry has mostly portrayed the transgender community in a cliche comic and negative light.In international movies and documentaries, the world of the Hijras was portrayed as a trans-utopia, where gender differences are celebrated and even revered.What we need to gauge in the depiction is the fact that most of the Hijras are maligned in real life and are mistreated every day of their lives. Many are forced to beg and make a living by sex-work.In this film we can see the real life situation of a transgender and her journey of life with social acceptance.
