Huma says every human deserves a right to love with dignity
Mumbai:
Actress Huma Qureshi has used art as a tool to voice her concern and support for LGBT community. Through a poetic campaign, Ishq ki Ijaazat, Huma will spread awareness about the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. The campaign will be launched online to reach a wider audience.
Ishq ki Ijaazat is a film poem by Satyanshu and Devanshu Singh, and Huma has reportedly rendered the poetry.
"I believe everyone should have the freedom to choose for themselves," Huma said in a statement.
The initiative is not an angry statement against Article 377 that criminalises homosexuality. It is a poetic campaign to urge people to bring love out in the open and shun sexual preferences. It is about a basic right that every human being deserves - to be able to love with dignity, without any prejudice, the statement said.
