The event started off by a drag performance by Sastry and a gripping play by theatre artist Sajiv Pasala. It also had thought-provoking talks and discussions on gender, sexuality, consent, safe-sex practices, informed consent and more.

Sravan Telu, city’s only male belly dancer also performed at the event which also included a several other performances.

“It is hard to find a support system even within the queer community for people who identify as Pansexual/Bisexual and these people face stigmatisation even within the community. They are not given any validation and events like this help create awareness about the multiple-sexuality spectrum within the community,” said Sastry.
