Yellow Brit Road: Interview With Desi LGBT Fest

It's finally here! Here's the full, unabridged interview with the hosts of the Desi LGBT Fest, an online festival celebrating and spotlighting queer voices, expression, experiences, art, activism, and media created by and about members of the desi queer community. We discussed queerness in South Asia, expression, progress and of course, favourite queer media, art and literature. Some of their desi recommendations: the movie 'Badhai Do', books The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri, Hani and Ishu's Guide to Fake Dating by Adiba Jaigirdar. Other recommendations: (story behind) Portrait of Madame X by John Singer Sargent, the book Loveless by Alice Oseman.
