you must do the same.
this film caused riots in Bombay!
but its not about being a lesbian... its about the traditional roles set upon womyn in India, or anywhere else for that matter.
but i think it also shows that lesbianism is always a sure fall back. Failed female/male relationships led these two to become lesbians. when most of the time that is NOT the case. so that was one of my issues with this.
Here are some articles:

one particular point in the extras is that one Hindu Leader said that if
this movie had Muslim womyn and NOT Hindu womyn than all would be fine!!
(well not fine if you are a muslim, I think there would have been a bigger outrage!)
