“Dunno Y” the Indian answer to Hollywood’s “Brokeback Mountain,” as it features the first gay kiss in Indian cinema between the movie’s two stars, Akshay Kumar and Kapil Sharma. Sharma actually wrote the film as well and his brother, Sanjay Sharma, directed it.
The film first premiered in April 2010 at India’s first mainstream gay festival, called the Kashish Mumbai International Queer Film Festival. Since then, it’s been screened at film festivals in Europe and North America. As you can expect, it has received some criticism from religious groups that say its subject matter is “against the order of nature”.
