Ritu's Richness

                                                                                   

"I DON’T WANT TO BECOME A WOMAN"
RITUPARNO GHOSH DOESN’T WANT TO BECOME A WOMAN, BECAUSE HE FINDS UNIQUENESS IN HIS GENDER FLUIDITY. MAKING HIS ACTING DEBUT THIS FRIDAY AS A GAY FILMMAKER IN AAREKTI PREMER GALPO, GHOSH TELLS T2 HOW THE KAUSHIK GANGULY FILM MIRRORS HIS PERSONAL JOURNEY OF SELF-DISCOVERY.

Your cross-dressing has always raised eyebrows. Will Aarekti Premer Galpo give people more reason to talk about the ambiguity of your sexuality?
There’s always been a lot of speculation about me on approaching femininity… whether I am going in for a sex change or a breast augmentation. All kinds of speculation. But I was never embarrassed. If I want to change my identity by changing my sex, I would be the first person to let the world know about my new identity. I consider myself privileged because of my gender fluidity, the fact that I am in between.

I don’t consider myself a woman and I don’t want to become a woman. I can wear kurta pyjama and direct a film; I can also wear kajal and jewellery and attend a social do.... The concept of unisex has been monopolised by women. Women can wear men’s clothes. The problem arises when men wear women’s clothes. Whatever I wear has always been worn by men. Wearing things like earrings and necklaces has always been a part of our sartorial history and tradition. These were tagged as feminine frills during colonial rule and I don’t see anything wrong in reinstating it. My point is why shouldn’t I celebrate my sexuality?
