Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is not an LGBTQ film, says director Shelly Chopra Dhar

Bollywood’s latest offering Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga starring Sonam Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Juhi Chawla and Rajkummar Rao, is one of the first mainstream Indian movies to depict a same-sex love relationship. Lead actress Sonam Kapoor as Sweety is seen romancing Kuhu played by Regina Cassandra in the Shelly Chopra Dhar directorial debut film. Shelly recently opened up about the film’s bold subject and said that Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga is not an LGBTQ movie and that the audience would be left disappointed is they came to watch the movie with “an expectation of seeing an LGBTQ love story”.
