Gere thinks Bips is hot and bright... Contd.
Karan:
Do
you
think,
in
India,
AIDS
is
considered
to
be
a
homosexual
disease?
There
is
a
lot
of
ignorance?
Richard:
People
just
think...
yes,
it
is
primarily
sexually
transmitted...
sex
workers
and
truckers...
they
are
the
ones
who
are
in
this
culture,
labeled
the
ones,
'That
it
is
ok,
if
they
die'
...
Karan:
Oh
God!!
Richard:
Yes
...
But
that's
basically
that
has
happened
here...
and
of
course
this
disease
has
gone
into
the
middle
class
community
...
Karan:
Yes,
everywhere...
Richard:
It's
gone
into
middle
class
homes...
it's
gone
into
upper
class
homes....
Obviously
the
lower
class
homes...
the
primary
target
are
the
sex
workers
and
the
truckers...
Karan:
Where
do
you
see
the
Gere
foundation
a
decade
from
today...
Richard:
Well,
hopefully
the
disease
will
be
so
much
under
control
that
we
can
move
on
and
take
up
other
causes
