Transgender
beauty
queen
Nitasha
Biswas
is
all
set
to
make
her
television
debut
through
the

Dating
In
The
Dark.
Nitasha
was
born
a
boy
in
a
conservative
Bengali
family,
who
started
her
transition
at
the
age
of
22.
She
was
26
years
old
when
she
won
India's
first
trans-
beauty
pageant.
She
has
also
represented
Indian
at
the

behind

soul
mate.
About

experience
on

show
Dating
In
The
Dark,
she
told
Indian
Express,
"My
experience
on
'Dating
In
The
Dark'
was
quite
eventful.
I
went
on
two
dates
and
though
I
did
not
find
love
but
I'm
glad,
I
could
confess
to
my
second
date
about
my
journey
on
national
television
without
any
hesitation.
It
took
a
lot
of
courage
but
it
was
great
to
see
my
date
had
no
qualms
spending
time
with
me."
She
rose
to
fame
after
being
crowed
India's
first
transgender
beauty
queen
and
the
diva
has
not
looked
back
since
then.
Nitasha
has
a
huge
fan
following
on
Instagram
who
have
supported
her
through
her
journey.
She
has
been
vocal
about
the
issues
she
faces
as
a
transgender
and
was
seen
sharing
the
same
with
her
co-contestant
in
the
trailer
of
the
reality
show
Dating
In
The
Dark
that
left
the
viewers
teary-eyed.
She
talked
about
living
life
as
a
transgender
in
India
and
said,
"Being
a
transwoman
in
India,
rejections
are
a
part
of
our
lives.
We
have
faced
and
continue
to
face
rejections
from
workplace,
friends,
family
and
whom
we
fall
in
love
with.
I
believe,
love
has
no
gender
and
it
is
this
positive
attitude
and
confidence
that
I
hold
that
lets
me
believe,
I
will
find
my
soulmate
who
will
embrace
me
regardless,"
When
the
entire
nation
awaits
the
Supreme
Courts
verdict
on
Section
377
of
IPC,
the
news
with
regard
to
the
trans-beauty
Nitasha
entering
the
television
news
is
a
boosting
factor
to
all
the
LGBT
community
members
and
supporters.
Within
sometime
we'll
know
the
fate
of
Section
377
and
if
Nitasha
will
be
able
to
find
the
love
of
her
life.
