But actor Sonal Chauhan feels the representation is still skewed. “I have a lot of friends from the LGBT community, and I know how talented they are. I feel that they are still not getting their due deal. I would love to see them playing all kinds of characters and not just limited to an image. They are stereotyped in the industry, and it would be a nice change if it didn’t happen to them,” she mentions.

Work-wise, Chauhan says she is lucky that her shoots weren’t disrupted because of the surge in the cases recently. “The year has started on a packed note. I have been shooting non-stop,” says the actor who has worked in Hindi as well as Telugu film industry.
