#YashChopra's #DilTohPagalHai re-released in cinemas yesterday & the trademark Yash Chopra heroine aesthetic he frames #Madhuri in shone in spades on screen. Today I noticed interesting parallels b/w the visual treatment of #DTPH's Pooja & #VeerZaara's eponymous #Zaara. a 🧵

someone stop the damn tears.

WHY ARE YOU ASKING THE TRANSGENDER COMMUNITY TO TRUST A LAW THAT BEGINS BY DOUBTING THEM - Thamizhachi Thangapandian opposition cooking in LS i will weep 😭😭😭😭

this bill actually has provisions for taking action against people who "appear" trans - if you're a cis woman, androgyny isnt a personal fashion choice you're entitled to rn, it's leverage that might code you as one of us. our struggles are more connected than you realise

Though I will miss Parliament because of the ongoing #KeralaElections, I am following reports of legislative developments there. I’m deeply concerned by the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill, 2026, introduced in the Lok Sabha, which was tabled rather

We are not asking for special rights. We are asking for the same right everyone else has: to exist without fear, to be seen as we are, and to live without being targeted by the law… #RejectTransBill2026 @Drvirendrakum13

Precisely! #RejectTransBill2026

 If our existence makes you uncomfortable, that discomfort is yours to examine not  ours to disappear for. We have already done the hard work of understanding ourselves. It’s high time you did too #RejectTransBill2026 @Drvirendrakum13

enough- trans oomfs and non oomfs let’s take over all the government positions.

We found peace in ourselves. Why does that threaten you? #RejectTransBill2026 @Drvirendrakum13

Stop policing bodies that aren’t yours. We reject your exclusionary feminism. We #rejecttransbill2026. #nogoingback

If you belong to the cis LGBAI+ spectrum, are queer, non-binary, or an ally and staying silent, this will affect you too. A state that can regulate trans identity can expand control over bodies and expressions across communities. Speak up. @RejectTransBill #RejectTransBill2026

A delegation of 20 transgender folx & their cisgender queer allies met with @VarshaEGaikwad Tai, @INCIndia MP for Mumbai North Central this morning to speak with her about our opposition to the BJP's Transgender Amendment Bill, 2026, a frontal assault on the community's dignity.

im cryin man i just saw like 5 anti trans bills get passed in this month, it's literally just that post where you wake up and the government has passed the "We Fucking Hate You And You Need To Die" Act

We are not a problem to be solved or a debate to be won. We are people trying to live honestly in our own bodies. Laws like these don’t protect anyone, they only make life harder and more dangerous for those already fighting to exist. #RejectTransBill2026 @Drvirendrakum13

Chennai folks! Turn Up. 4 PM, Tomorrow (23rd March, 2026) Near Chennai district collector office. #RejectTransBill2026 #TransRights

Our bodies aren’t your battleground. #RejectTransBill2026 @Drvirendrakum13

Amplifying every tweet talking about the 2026 Trans Bill! It is one of the most inhumane things that is happening in this country, wdym rapists of trans women will get less punishment coz anatomy is different???

can't get over that ridiculous amendment act we genuinely don't even have some crazy public rhetoric about "real" vs "fake" trans people or about entitlements (the few there are) being "stolen" or anything of the sort they're just doing this for ... what ?? pure hate ??
