Bollywood Celebs rejoice legalising homosexuality

Bollywood actors said that the decision of the Delhi High Court to legalise same-sex relationship will not just give legal cover to the homosexual community, but also help them lead a relatively trouble-free life.

Actor John AbrahamJohn Abraham, who is considered one of India’s hottest gay-icons, said, "I think it’s a step in the positive direction and I am personally quite happy that the High Court has finally given equal rights to everyone – whether he is a homosexual or a heterosexual."The actor who came under some criticism from the gay community for playing a heterosexual man posing as a gay in Dostana added, "I think in a democratic country like India, where right to equality is a constitutional right, it was very important to give homosexuals their due. The government was also very empathetic to the fact that they should be treated equally."
