JLT's Project Indian Bride, is a 32 minute film that shares the story of Rekha, an urban trans girl who wants to be a model.
There is, unfortunately, a very specific mindset and notion of what 'transgender' people are in India. This movie tries to break this barrier by showcasing an urban transgender girl, who like anybody else has a 9 to 5 job, loves hanging with her friends, and is a struggling model on the side.
JLT's Project Indian Bride, showcases how Rekha actually books a photoshoot as an Indian bride, but the photographer's pregnant wife builds a strong reluctance because of traditional myths!
Directed by Mujeer Pasha and Produced by Harini Daddala (previously known for JLT's The 'Other' Love Story - India's 1st same sex web series), Let us know if you would like to interview them or help us share the film!
