One Small Step
In what is a truly momentous moment in South Asian LGBT history, Rose (nee Ramesh Venkatesan) will become the first transgender TV host in
Her show Tamil show “Ippadiku Rose” (Yours Rose) will address topics ranging from marriage and divorce, to sexuality and drugs. Despite of the taboo material, the show doesn’t seek to shock people, but educate and expand horizons.
When she’s not busy breaking down cultural barriers, she works on a litany of other projects as well. Together with her friend Priya Babu, she is also working on a book for the transgender community and conducts awareness programs for the local police.
A Rose never smelled so sweet.
