Celesti Bairagey became massively popular for being Alia Bhatt’s lookalike. She was last seen in the show ‘Rajjo’. She says that movies and shows on the LGBTQIA+ community have helped raise acceptance in the industry. She adds that she has also collaborated on projects which focus on this community.

“Movies, OTT, and other forms of entertainment platforms have a wide range of audiences. The various same-sex-related movies have definitely contributed in understanding and accepting the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community,” she says.

She adds, “I have read and presented many presentations on the LGBTQIA+ community. I have also worked in a music video in Assam where I played a lesbian, the music video titled ‘Tumi Junak’ was released in Pride Month last year. I have also participated in the pride walk in Assam. I am willing and always ready to do anything that would contribute to the welfare of the LGBTQIA+ community. Also, the makeup industry in Assam has contributed a huge part in offering jobs to their community which is very overwhelming.”
