One of the first movies on the LGBTQ theme is the now forgotten Badnam Basti (1970), directed by Prem Kapoor. In a piece for Scroll, Manish Gaekwad writes that this movie was an 'unconventional love triangle between two men and a woman' adapted from a book written by Kamleshwar. Unfortunately, there is no copy of this movie. After Badnam Basti, barring a few films, there was a serious lull in movies dealing with LGBTQ themes, till 1996 when Bomgay happened. Directed by Jugnu Sethna and Riyad Vinci Wadia, it was an anthology comprising six short films, all based on the poems of R Raj Rao.
But over the years, the cinematic medium has tried to shine a light on the LGBTQ community through movies offering a window into a world seldom visited and rarely understood. Here's a list of 12 Indian LGBTQ movies, some well-known and some obscure.
Before Happiest Season, there were a few LGBTQ+ films set around the holidays that featured gay or bisexual characters as the main protagonist or one of the necessary supporting characters. 2020 especially began to build upward momentum when many networks and streaming services opened up the world of Christmas movies to include more diverse stories, especially those involving same-sex couples or gay characters. Since Happiest Season, there have been more LGBTQ+ Christmas movies created.
Following are the 15 best LGBTQ movies in 2022 that accommodates and surpasses the ideas around queer identities. I have intentionally chosen movies in which queerness forms a central aspect of the narrative or the portrayal of the protagonists themselves and mostly excused those which seek to give a queer spin to a hetero-normative plot or stereotype the community; a couple of these have come to re-define the genres they belong to.

Is there any part of our life that Amazon hasn't infiltrated yet? Surprisingly, there are actually quite a few good lesbian movies that you can now stream on Amazon for a very affordable price (less than a movie ticket) or watch for free if you're an Amazon Prime member.
While not all of these lesbian movies have the typical happy ending we're looking for, they are still well-made and worthy of watching. And if you're anything like us, when you see these lesbian couples get together on screen, you'll react like this as well.
This is one of our favorite movies of all time and will always have a special place in our hearts. Saving Face is about a Chinese-American lesbian and her traditionalist mother who are both reluctant to go public with secret loves that clash against cultural expectations.
A beautiful yet heartbreaking 19th century romance set in the American Northeast. Abigail, a farmer's wife, and her new neighbor, Tallie, find themselves irrevocably drawn to each other, but their circumstances make it nearly impossible to be together. A grieving Abigail has to spend her time tending to her withdrawn husband, Dyer, while the free spirited Tallie, tries to free herself from the jealous control of her husband. Together, their intimacy begins to fill a void in each other's lives they never knew existed. While it's not a happy ending and it lacks the type of empowering triumph you would want for these two characters, the movie is very realistic in depicting the times that the two women are living in and both leading actresses do a phenomenal job on screen.Does it have a happy ending? No, and it's somewhat tragic. ?
Dark, quirky, and original, Kajillionaire by Miranda July is one of those movies that seems very bizarre at first but that you ultimately come to appreciate after reflecting on all of the subtlety, subtext and cleverness embedded throughout the film.
Love, Classified is a delightful movie to watch that gives you all the warm and fuzzies. It has all the elements of a logical plot line (plus a few cheesy rom com moments of course) featuring a very attractive lesbian couple with a happy ending. Seriously, what more can you ask for?
Luckily for us, there are more and more lesbian movies and lesbian romance movies! We have all seen many straight romantic movies, and now we want to see lesbian love and lesbian relationships in movies. And preferably ones with a happy ending.

Fell for the craft of writing after reading P.B.Shelley in 10th standard. I want to travel the world and experience the diverse cultures. Love to cook, dance and binge watch movies. Preferring dogs over humans since 1994!
"It was so heartwarming to see queer women of color represented on screen in such a lighthearted yet significant way! So many 'lesbian' movies end in tragedy or are just straight-up terrible so I appreciated this film a lot."

Life isn't a romantic comedy. It's rare to click with someone the first time you meet them. In the real world, flirting happens easier over multiple interactions. It's easier to flirt with guys you see at the bar every weekend, or that person who comes to the gym at the same time you do. Build up your confidence, say hello, strike up a light conversation, ask a question or two, and let that be it. Too much too fast (like in most movies) feels uncomfortable.
We meet Raimunda (Penelope Cruz) and Sole (Lola Duenas), Irene's daughters; Raimunda's daughter, Paula (Yohana Cobo), and Paco (Antonio de la Torre), Raimunda's beer-swilling, layabout husband. Two deaths occur closely spaced to upset this happy balance: Aunt Paula keels over, and young Paula repulses an advance by her stepfather Paco using a large, bloody, very Hitchcockian knife. Paco ends up on the kitchen floor, his arms and legs splayed in an uncanny reminder of the body on the poster of Preminger's "Anatomy of a Murder."
Before we had Rajkumar Santoshi and Priyadarshan, we had Hrishikesh Mukherjee and his brilliant movies. Like always, the story was the hero of the film, but this movie also had Dharmendra and Amitabh Bachchan at their comic best!
The number of yesteryear movies in this list makes it easy to believe that Bollywood definitely had a better sense of humor in the past. And nothing proves it better than this romantic comedy (Remember the song Mere Saamne Vali Khidki Mein)!
Technically Kangana and Madhavan are the lead pair in the movie, though it is Pappi bhaisaab (Deepak Dobriyal) who feels like the real star of the movie. With blunt dialogues and a badass female character as lead, this movie was all kinds of wonderful. Also one of those rare Bollywood movies where the sequel was better than the original. 2ff7e9595c
