Under-rated Drag Queens Breaking The Gender Stereotypes

In India, drag culture has flourished over time. Today, it has also become a source of expression for the people of the LGBTQIA+ community. Traditionally, Drag Queen is a male who dresses up to exaggerate and impersonate a female gender. This was done for entertainment purposes. Drag culture became mainstream in India since the Supreme court ruled that section 377 is unconstitutional.

Many Drag Queens have chosen Instagram as a medium of expression. Therefore, here are some Instagram handles you should not miss if you are a makeup enthusiast.
