Discover the other love story, a journey of two young girls in love and their courage. The stigmas associated with same-sex relationships, but only love flourishes.
The Other Love story holds a special place in Out and Loud- Pune International Queer Film Fest. The audience was very excited to meet the director, Roopa Rao, but the day was full of twists and turns. Roopa had missed her flight due to miscommunication.
The web-series turned into a movie, was going to be available when Roopa was supposed to arrive. The screening went well; the audience was very excited to hear from Roopa. Being the sweet person she is, Roopa had booked her flight not to disappoint her followers. Such was the impact created by The Other Love Story; the audience stayed back after the film festival to get to listen to Roopa and have a conversation. In my entire experience of 10 years, I had never seen anything like this.
Personally, it is more than just a story. Spoorthy, my classmate, and Ally was also a part of this web series, which was very special for me. Roopa answered all questions, Aadya and Aachal even joined over teleconferencing, which made the event even more special.
The story captured the reality so well that one could easily feel the connection with it. In a recent conversation over Instagram with Roopa Rao and other members of the web-series. They informed that it is not easy for non-queer actors to kiss on screen, but it takes place with effort. They also spoke about the difficulty in managing to shoot on the train without permission.
Out & Loud Team would take this opportunity to thank Roopa Rao for making this beautiful movie, and the sweet gesture to connect with her audience.
