The story of queer India has largely been synonymous with urban India and cities. As the power of queer money and low-hanging kudos for representation beckon (lesbians too can practice Karwa Chauth and use fairness creams, anyone?) — the images we see are flattened.

Based on field reporting by KL senior reporter Nazni Rizvi, writing and editing by Riddhi Dastidar and illustration and design by Jyotsana
