“I was always bold. I always wanted to be a fashionable actor. Growing up in Lucknow, I did not understand why I was stopped from dressing or being a certain way. I could not understand how being a girl or my religion had anything to do with what I chose to wear. I was mentally and physically abused and felt dead from inside. I even tried committing suicide but in that one moment decided to give my life a deserving chance it deserved. I ran away to Delhi. I was just 17.
I started taking tuitions to support myself and paid my rent. Later, I started working in a call center. I would buy clothes in stock or sale and would try to design newer wears off them. I was always into clothes and wearing them the way in which I felt self-accepted and unapologetically myself.

Soon, I decided to go and try my luck in Mumbai. I used to stay at my friends’ houses while doing odd jobs, giving interviews and going for auditions. Often for food, I would struggle. After a brief period of struggle, I cracked a TV Serial, a childhood dream of mine. I started getting type casted into similar roles but felt grateful for the financial stability. I let go of that and tried my destiny in Bigg Boss OTT. But I was evicted within a week and back to square one. I began experimenting and uploading with the things I was best with, my passion for clothes! My expressions through what I wore, the world trolled me and called my choices rubbish and weird. I was questioned about my morality and character.

But not caring about faceless people’s opinions on the Internet, I kept embracing myself and expressed self-acceptance through my choice.

Today, we present to you someone who is standing against the world’s tide of unsolicited opinions, internet trolling and verbal or mental abuse.
