Trinetra Haldar Gummaraju gained widespread recognition following her impactful role in Zoya Akhtar’s web series Made In Heaven 2. Beyond her acting prowess, she is a multi-talented individual, who is a doctor, actor, and one of India’s pioneering transgender content creators. Recently, she took to Instagram to share a before-and-after picture of herself, accompanied by a long note, reflecting on her journey of transition.

She wrote, “Found this photo after over a year, and couldn’t help but weep a little. Gosh, I cringe so hard at old posts, I’ve stopped looking at them. How does one navigate celebrating a rough journey and honouring one’s past alongside anxiety around being cringe? I’m not too sure, but what I will never get over, what I can never unsee is a very particular sadness in the first photo. I’d taken those jhumkas from mom and tried them on in my boys’ hostel room. That was my comfort after a long day.”
