Coming Out is a step that probably every closeted gay man or woman wants to take. But coming out is a difficult process in itself. There is always the risk that you might be rejected by your family, that you might lose your friends, that you might have to face harassment. Also, there are hardly any gay celebrities or role models in India to look up to who could be an inspiration for LGBT people, especially the youth. Mr. Gay India is one such person who could be the role model for young people in India.
So Gaylaxy shot a small video with the current Mr. Gay World India 2016 Anwesh Sahoo, where he talks about how he was bullied as a child, how he came out to his friends and family, and how their reactions have changed over time.
