The visionary director Abhishek Kapoor brought this film to life with a dedicated approach and action towards a differential thought process. It was a commendable feat to make a film on such a unique topic and bringing it for the masses to be accepted and appreciated. The film's journey began in the theatres keeping the audiences engaged with its compelling storyline and outstanding performances. Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor led the cast, shedding light on a tale of love, acceptance, and societal norms. As the movie connects with the masses, it set the stage for a broader conversation on the challenges faced by the Communities across levels. Recently our honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi too interacted with the members of the transgender community. The initiative has truly started noteworthy conversations.

 

One of the film's most noteworthy aspects is its portrayal of transgender characters. Now, that Bollywood has seen a transformation for different kinds of stories, the movie embraces the transgender community, highlighting their struggles for acceptance and love. The portrayal of such strong characters not only adds depth to the storyline but also contributes to break stereotypes and builds a sense of acceptance in the society.

 

Abhishek Kapoor, Director of Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui said, “The movie has been made with a progressive thought of inclusion. Ayushmann and Vaani put forward their best performances. We approached the topic with a lot of care and wrapped it in an entertaining package to reach as many people as possible. It’s heartwarming to see how things are changing. With the recent shift in understanding, it’s a welcome change. Watching our honourable Prime Minister interacting with a member of the transgender community and checking on their wellbeing speaks volumes about the progress that we have undertaken.”

 

The industry is gradually recognizing the importance of showcasing strong & relevant stories and moving away from age-old stereotypes and norms. This evolution in storytelling is influencing the masses in shaping societal perspectives and promoting love and acceptance.
