Vivek was eight. He realized he was gay. Only he didn't: he just figured that he wanted to be different. And that he was in love - for want of a better word - with Deepak, his best friend. Then Mast Kalandar released, with Anupam Kher playing Pinku, a stereotypical gay character. And Vivek realized he didn't want to be Pinku. So he tried to walk differently, gesticulate differently, and speak in as gruff a voice as he could - all to avoid being Pinku. Funny, poignant, heartwarming and heart-breaking all at once, this is a memoir of growing up gay in India in the 1990s, with Bollywood, books, and the Bombay sea for company.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vivek Tejuja","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":30922639179889,"sku":"HAR-294","price":269.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0015\/0601\/7393\/products\/9789353572693.jpg?v=1571686939"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.booksetgo.com\/collections\/vivek-tejuja\/all-categories_memoirs.oembed","provider":"BOOKSETGO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
