00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:12.120 align:center
[Man] Riyaz!

00:00:15.680 --> 00:00:17.560 align:center
- Being gay is a crime.
- Really?

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:19.680 align:center
Don't you know anything
about Section 377?

00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:23.360 align:center
The document to change a law
is called a bill in the Parliament.

00:00:23.440 --> 00:00:25.280 align:center
Before this bill is tabled

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:27.400 align:center
you must convince your grandma.

00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:29.120 align:center
I will call Swami today.

00:00:29.240 --> 00:00:31.360 align:center
And if he cures your friend,

00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:34.400 align:center
you will have to forget
about this rubbish bill.

00:00:34.480 --> 00:00:35.720 align:center
[Shivering]

00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:38.040 align:center
What is happening, Swami?

00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:41.360 align:center
I trusted you unnecessarily.

00:00:41.800 --> 00:00:44.080 align:center
Get out of here. Leave!

00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:47.200 align:center
With the agreement
of the Prime Minister

00:00:47.680 --> 00:00:50.720 align:center
I would like to present
this bill in the Parliament

00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:53.800 align:center
which will decriminalize
homosexuality.

00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:55.920 align:center
- No!
- No!

00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.360 align:center
- No!
- No!

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:00.240 align:center
- No!
- No!

[Indistinct muttering]

00:01:44.720 --> 00:01:46.040 align:center
[Man] Madam Speaker,

00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:50.080 align:center
I feel, our national animal
should be the peacock.

00:01:50.160 --> 00:01:52.240 align:center
Because peacocks never have sex.

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:53.800 align:center
That way, our country...

00:01:53.880 --> 00:01:55.920 align:center
[Music playing]

[Camera shutter clicks]

00:02:48.040 --> 00:02:51.320 align:center
What? Why is everyone staring
at my rainbow sari like that?

00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:53.800 align:center
This is my gay pride look, people.

00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.600 align:center
[Music playing]

00:03:18.640 --> 00:03:21.920 align:center
Madam PM has a new perspective
with the new generation.

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:25.000 align:center
She believes that to have
this bill passed

00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.040 align:center
she needs the people's approval
and not that of the Parliament.

00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.000 align:center
Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.

00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:35.800 align:center
There are two types
of grapes on your plates.

00:03:35.880 --> 00:03:37.560 align:center
Green and black.

00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.160 align:center
[Camera shutter clicks]

00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:42.160 align:center
First, try the green ones.

00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:44.800 align:center
And don't worry, they are low
in calories and high in fiber.

00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:47.880 align:center
[Tanya] How are they?

00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:49.320 align:center
Sweet?

00:03:50.600 --> 00:03:52.720 align:center
Okay, now try the black ones.

00:03:55.600 --> 00:03:57.000 align:center
[Tanya] They are sweet too.

00:03:57.600 --> 00:04:01.240 align:center
If I pass a law
that claims that here on

00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:03.600 align:center
only green grapes
are the real ones

00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:07.120 align:center
and the black grapes are banned,
how would you feel?

00:04:12.040 --> 00:04:14.480 align:center
My point is that in nature

00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.440 align:center
there are green
as well as black grapes.

00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:21.320 align:center
So, who are we to decide
which ones are real ones?

00:04:22.760 --> 00:04:24.440 align:center
We all are grapes.

00:04:24.520 --> 00:04:26.360 align:center
And we all are juicy.

00:04:26.440 --> 00:04:29.960 align:center
And we all have the potential
of becoming wine in the future.

00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.440 align:center
[All laughing]

00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:34.480 align:center
Just like my friend Ricky.

00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:36.640 align:center
Ricky came to India
from London, with me.

00:04:36.760 --> 00:04:39.760 align:center
And he is being told
that he's a criminal here.

00:04:40.200 --> 00:04:43.320 align:center
Just because he's gay!
I love Ricky.

00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:46.640 align:center
And I'm damn proud of him.

00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:48.320 align:center
[Chuckles]

00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:54.240 align:center
If you love your gay friend, and
want to support them like I do

00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:57.120 align:center
then please take
a #Gaylfie with them.

00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:01.880 align:center
And upload it on all social media
pages. Everywhere!

00:05:02.200 --> 00:05:04.040 align:center
[Tanya] And don't forget to tag me.

00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:07.480 align:center
[Music playing]

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:24.200 align:center
[Sachin] Hey!

00:05:28.320 --> 00:05:31.600 align:center
I hope you know that you're
trending on no. 1 since two days.

00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:33.920 align:center
I was born to be trendy.

00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:35.880 align:center
But, Tanya, on a serious note,

00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:39.000 align:center
do you really think these
selfies and hashtags

00:05:39.080 --> 00:05:40.760 align:center
will create a revolution?

00:05:40.840 --> 00:05:44.920 align:center
I became a PM because I took
a selfie in a village.

00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:48.000 align:center
Yeah, but I hope you know
trends change in a few days.

00:05:48.080 --> 00:05:50.080 align:center
But revolution can come in a day.

00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:52.240 align:center
It's impossible to win
an argument against you, Tanya.

00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:56.480 align:center
Okay, anyway, I guess,
I'll have to talk to the MPs again.

00:06:02.280 --> 00:06:03.520 align:center
[Excited]

00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:08.960 align:center
- You must say something.
- Calm down.

00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.400 align:center
Ms. Tanya is ruining
the heritage of the country.

00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.240 align:center
There has been such a tsunami of
Tanya's popularity on social media

00:06:16.320 --> 00:06:18.400 align:center
that the entire India
is drowning now.

00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.800 align:center
Boys are nowadays clicking
pictures with boys.

00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:23.560 align:center
And girls, with girls.
What is happening in our country?

00:06:23.640 --> 00:06:26.000 align:center
Why are you people
getting worried, unnecessarily?

00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.120 align:center
This social media and all
is utter nonsense.

00:06:29.200 --> 00:06:31.240 align:center
Today they're fighting
for gay rights.

00:06:31.320 --> 00:06:34.720 align:center
In a few days, they'll fight
over Shahrukh and Salman.

00:06:35.200 --> 00:06:37.400 align:center
[Music playing]

00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:43.880 align:center
[Man]
I am the MP. I cannot support you.

00:06:43.960 --> 00:06:46.960 align:center
But at least see the outrage
the people will show, Mr. Prasad.

00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:48.360 align:center
I'm sorry.
[Disconnects]

00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:50.560 align:center
Hello. Hello.

00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:53.640 align:center
Oh, God!

00:06:53.840 --> 00:06:54.760 align:center
What are they saying?

00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:56.840 align:center
We spoke to so many MPs.

00:06:57.040 --> 00:06:59.840 align:center
Despite such a powerful
social media campaign

00:06:59.960 --> 00:07:02.240 align:center
not one MP is willing
to support us.

00:07:02.320 --> 00:07:03.280 align:center
[Sighs]

00:07:03.400 --> 00:07:05.000 align:center
I think, it is time
for course correction.

00:07:05.080 --> 00:07:07.840 align:center
We need to take
this movement offline.

00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.080 align:center
You mean, like a pride march?

00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.680 align:center
I have some amazing
feathery colorful outfits.

00:07:12.760 --> 00:07:14.240 align:center
- [Sachin] No, Tanya.
- They're so cute.

00:07:14.320 --> 00:07:16.920 align:center
Something bigger.
Until these MPs

00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:19.720 align:center
don't receive pressure
from their own vote banks,

00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:21.080 align:center
they'll do nothing.

00:07:25.760 --> 00:07:27.160 align:center
[Ricky] How about this?

00:07:27.520 --> 00:07:31.040 align:center
We should ask the couples
of same sex to march

00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:32.800 align:center
and as a mark of protest

00:07:33.760 --> 00:07:35.200 align:center
they can kiss each other.

00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:37.000 align:center
Oh, God!

00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:39.720 align:center
- That sounds great.
- Ricky, baby, we can't do that.

00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:42.240 align:center
Everyone will be arrested
for obscenity.

00:07:42.320 --> 00:07:46.320 align:center
You mean, kissing in public
is illegal in India

00:07:46.440 --> 00:07:48.360 align:center
- but not pissing.
- Exactly!

00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:49.880 align:center
Wow!

00:07:49.960 --> 00:07:52.680 align:center
There are so many bills
that I need to get passed.

00:07:52.760 --> 00:07:54.440 align:center
We need something that

00:07:54.520 --> 00:07:57.160 align:center
goes straight to the ministers'
minds from the people's hearts.

00:07:57.240 --> 00:07:59.280 align:center
You know, like,
a call of the people.

00:08:00.520 --> 00:08:04.520 align:center
What if we all start
giving missed calls to our MPs?

00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:06.320 align:center
- What?
- Yes.

00:08:06.400 --> 00:08:07.880 align:center
- What do you mean?
- Missed calls?

00:08:08.520 --> 00:08:09.400 align:center
As in?

00:08:10.440 --> 00:08:11.880 align:center
[Tanya] Since three days,

00:08:11.960 --> 00:08:14.800 align:center
we've been demanding
our rights on social media.

00:08:14.880 --> 00:08:18.560 align:center
Yet, our MPs are ignoring us.

00:08:18.640 --> 00:08:22.080 align:center
There is only one way to make
our voices reach our MPs.

00:08:24.320 --> 00:08:27.400 align:center
Gay, bisexual, transgender,

00:08:27.520 --> 00:08:30.040 align:center
straight, men, women...

00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.640 align:center
This fight is of us all.

00:08:32.760 --> 00:08:37.960 align:center
And we need to become a vote bank
that no politician can ignore.

00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:41.720 align:center
And we will do this
by a small missed call.

00:08:41.880 --> 00:08:44.920 align:center
Call your MPs and tell them

00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:48.360 align:center
that if they do not
support us in passing this bill

00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:51.640 align:center
in the upcoming general elections
you won't vote for them.

00:08:51.760 --> 00:08:53.520 align:center

type your pin code and get
the name and number of your MP.

00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:30.240 align:center
And just give them a missed call.

00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:31.640 align:center
And keep calling them.

00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:34.360 align:center
Until their batteries die!

00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:53.800 align:center
What is Tanya doing? This will
be more troublesome for us.

[All phones ringing]

00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:14.440 align:center
[TV reporter] Tanya Thakur
has created a revolution.

00:10:15.160 --> 00:10:21.080 align:center
Section 377 is a very debatable
and sensitive topic.

00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:26.120 align:center
Tanya Thakur's #Gaylfie

00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.440 align:center
and #MissedCall is casting
a spell on everyone.

00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:34.920 align:center
The tides of the law are changing
with that of the country.

00:10:35.040 --> 00:10:39.000 align:center
And the popularity of the PM
is increasing among people.

00:10:39.640 --> 00:10:41.040 align:center
Popularity.

00:10:44.440 --> 00:10:47.480 align:center
Gosh! I got 5,000 missed calls
in 5 days.

00:10:47.560 --> 00:10:50.200 align:center
I won the previous election
with 6,000 votes.

00:10:50.280 --> 00:10:52.560 align:center
I have received 6,500
missed calls so far.

00:10:52.680 --> 00:10:55.800 align:center
If I don't support this bill,
I will surely lose.

00:10:55.880 --> 00:10:58.240 align:center
[Man] You tell me, madam,
what should I do?

00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:00.680 align:center
Madam, I told you put the phone.

00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:02.120 align:center
Hello...

00:11:08.120 --> 00:11:12.080 align:center
This will be the historic day
that is awaited by PM Tanya Thakur

00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:14.440 align:center
and Sachin Ghatge
from the opposition.

00:11:14.520 --> 00:11:16.560 align:center
This bill was rejected
by great margins last time.

00:11:16.640 --> 00:11:19.280 align:center
What will happen this time
with the bill in the Parliament?

00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:21.520 align:center
You may begin
the proceeding of today.

00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:30.360 align:center
Madam Speaker, since a few days
there is something

00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:33.720 align:center
that has been spreading
in the country, like wildfire.

00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:38.000 align:center
The matter is as big
as small it appears to be.

00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:41.040 align:center
It is as complicated
as simple it seems.

00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:42.480 align:center
And the matter is

00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:46.320 align:center
that when the Creator
made us equal

00:11:46.400 --> 00:11:49.680 align:center
then why should we discriminate
among one another?

00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:59.480 align:center
Section 377 is against
our Fundamental Rights.

00:12:03.040 --> 00:12:06.240 align:center
So I would like to reintroduce
the bill seeking abolishment

00:12:06.520 --> 00:12:07.960 align:center
of Section 377.

00:12:08.920 --> 00:12:10.520 align:center
You may introduce the bill.

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:14.760 align:center
The ones opposing the bill
may say no.

00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:38.240 align:center
And the ones in favour say... aye.

00:12:38.760 --> 00:12:40.000 align:center
Aye!

00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:42.200 align:center
- Aye!
- Aye!

00:12:42.520 --> 00:12:44.880 align:center
Aye!

00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:47.200 align:center
- Aye!
- Aye!

00:12:47.280 --> 00:12:48.680 align:center
Aye!

00:12:53.440 --> 00:12:59.800 align:center
The Parliament hereby abolishes
Section 377 of IPC

00:12:59.920 --> 00:13:04.880 align:center
