Mukul Chadda advocates for gender identity discussion in upcoming film alongside wife Rasika Dugal

Actor Mukul Chadda and wife Rasika Dugal are discussing the importance of films in sparking conversations around gender identity, sexual orientation, and social conditioning in their new film ‘Fairy Folk’. Directed by Karan Gour, the movie addresses issues of love and sexuality.

Mukul Chadda shared, “Issues such as gender identity and fluidity, sexual orientation, and the social trappings around them, are important issues of our time. Films that reflect those issues, even as conversation starters, do trigger something in people, as we’re seen with the reactions people have had to our film, ‘Fairy Folk’.”

According to Mukul, ‘Fairy Folk’ does not aim to provide solutions to these complex questions but aims to raise awareness and encourage discussion around them. The actor expressed his pride in being part of a project that has sparked continued contemplation on such important issues long after the movie is over.

Directed by Karan Gour, ‘Fairy Folk’ explores themes of love and sexuality, delving into the nuances and complexities surrounding these topics. The film aims to initiate conversations and shed light on the diverse perspectives and experiences relating to gender identity and desire.
