Rakhee Sawant to play eunuch in upcoming movie 'UPEKSHA'


Controversial Queen Rakhee Sawant appeared as a Eunuch for the first time in Bollywood history, at the Muhurat shot of film “UPEKSHA”, at Sheesha Sky Lounge, Juhu, Mumbai on 15th April 2016. Authentic lamp was lit by Ravinddra Khare, Rakhee Sawant, Laxmi Narayan (a well-known activist for Eunuch), Hasmukh Patel & Kabina Maharajan, which was followed by a brilliant performance by another eunuch Honey Darling. Entire crowd along with media applauded with thundering claps, after which everyone along with some more eunuchs (Anu, Kamal, Nandini, Rakhi etc.) unveiled the poster of the film. Vishakha compared the show with excellence.

Rakhee Sawant speaking on the occasion said that Eunuch should be given equal rights like normal person , they should have right to education so that they can have a decent life . They should not be considered as stigma to society but govt should work for its upliftment . 

Rakhee Sawant and Laxmi Narayan both said that this film is based on a real story, a story of a child who was born in a rich family but was not perfect, neither male nor female, she was a eunuch, so the film is about the struggle of the eunuchs in our society who are denied from their every rights in modern society.
