There was a time in India when the LGBTQ+ community was looked down upon. But with each passing day, the scenario and mindsets around the same is changing drastically. One of the major reasons for this huge 'change', are the people, who have fought rigorously for their right to freedom. Out of the many, one such rainbow head is none other than Sushant Divgikar. An actor, VJ, model, Divgikar has been impressing the junta with his art since quite a time. Adding one more feather to his hat, the artistic dude channeled her inner diva and made many heads turned at the recently held (October 5) Elle India Beauty Awards 2019.

Creating 'herstory', as the first Indian dragueen to walk Elle's red carpet, Divgikar looked ultra-glam in his Rani-Ko-HE-Nur avatar. Serving DRAG to the t, Sushant for the night went the golden and black way. His getup compressed of a gold coloured bustier which eventually transformed into a sheer gown from the waist. With extra makeup, curled up hairdo and shiny accessories, Rani-Ko-HE-Nur was a hit on the red carpet. We bow down to the dragqueen for looking this extravagant.

In a country like India, the DRAG culture is still not that prominent. In a nutshell, a man dressing up as a woman along with loud makeup is still a taboo here. But thanks to artists like Sushant Divgikar, even this form of art is getting recognised and getting the limelight. Not just a glamdoll, Sushant rose to fame by appearing on two TV shows, Big Switch and Bigg Boss Season 8. In July 2014, he was also crowned Mr Gay India 2014. Hail the QWEEN!!!
