Raktdhar first Bollywood film showing a transgender’s death rituals! 

India is the only country where the tradition of eunuchs is prevalent today. There are about 1 million of them, though their role in life has changed drastically from that of royal servants, confidantes, and friends. Eunuchs, or hijras as they are called here, have become something to be feared.

Transgender’s struggle in society:

• There have been myths and very few people know about the death procedures of transgenders.
• When a eunuch dies, his death rally is carried out in the night and no one
• else other than their community is allowed to see the procedure.
• It is believed that their funeral ceremony is sober.
