Queer Indian Media: A Compilation
A couple of days ago, @impala124 sent @lurkingshan an ask about the lack of discussion about Queer Indian Media in fandom spaces. I wrote about it here, @neuroticbookworm here, and @waitmyturtles here (both of them have excellent points, I highly recommend you read their posts!). It's become quite apparent that people are willing to watch and engage in discourse about queer Indian media, it's just that the lack of popularity and accessibility makes it harder for people to start. So, I've decided to make a list tracking all of the queer Indian media I know of, and hopefully also any meta/discourse about it, which is an idea I've had floating in my head for months now.
This list is by no means comprehensive, so if you have recs, send them my way! Text me on DM, send an ask, tag me in your posts, whatever. And though it's not possible for me to watch everything on the list, I will be slowly going through as many of these as I can and writing about them, as well as hopefully finding more stuff and easier to access versions for the ones that are harder to access right now. This post is going to be a slow work in progress, but I'm hoping to update it regularly. So, if you'd like me to keep you updated, let me know through the tags/replies and I will tag you in future posts!
I've tagged the people who've recommended certain shows alongside each show. Everything on here is available online. The hyperlinked titles lead you to the media itself, meaning that it's available for free online with subtitles. Other details will be mentioned separately.
Disclaimer: The media I have watched/read have recommendation ratings (which will not always reflect my enjoyment of something, rather are based on how much I'd recommend it). While I did lightly screen everything on here, the criteria was 'has a trailer or otherwise showing queerness to be a central theme in the story' and 'is available online', so take that into account if you decide to pick something up, and definitely watch trailers and/or skim the wikipedia pages beforehand.

This is grey without subtitles, its available officially on JioCinema but you need a subscription
Mini gls from @twig-tea (og post here)
Firsts S3 | @tinyreadinglifelight
Neverland
Maaya 2
Last two eps do not have subtitles but the story is followable
The ‘Other’ Love Story @/silverquillsideas 
Just Another Love Story
Books
Memory of Light
Recommendation: 5/10 A historical book set during the colonial era, the lesbian romance is mostly a subplot that loses its way towards the end. It's kind of a drag, but the history component is somewhat interesting.
Don't Let Him Know
Recommendation Rating: 7.5/10 with serious trigger warnings including rape. It's a brutally honest book designed to make the reader uncomfortable, so proceed with caution. I personally liked it quite a lot, but that's majorly because of how authentic the book felt.
Falling Into Place
Recommendation Rating: 8/10 A modern lesbian romance that follows similar beats to the typical thai bl/gl. A little underdeveloped in some places, but overall quite good.
My Magical Palace
Cobalt Blue
The Paths Of Marriage
Marriage Of A Thousand Lies

I don't think you need to live in a country or be from there to comment on its politics but I think you should at the very least have like...a basic understanding of the political system and history first.

this entire Music Taste debate thing re:rap is getting annoying really fast. Im not USian enough for this.
#tho like. ''ohhhh i dont like it its too violent'' this argument is lame as shit. youre weak lmao. coming from a funk enjoyer#its just annoying as fuck how are always supposed to care about the us and everything about us culture all the time#i listen to rap. i dont listen to us rap however.#i literally spent an entire week last month going thru historical archives of brazilian rap n shit#which is MY culture i guess#n im not even trying to tote my metaphorical horn or anything. i like music history. and the story of br hiphop ties to br funk n SAMBA!#and its really cool! i like a bunch of them. i know the history of rap in my country and how THAT ties to racism and shit#but noooooo if i dont listen to List of 15 artists whether you want to or not youre racist#if youre going to make recommendations at least make them appealing? lmao. not guilt trippy!!!!#i dont listen to rap in english very often because i cant process english that fast. skill issue time. the vibes from the songs are cool!#but its just not my go to music!!!! if i want to listen to hiphop ill just grab my trusty Brazilian oldies#i know dj marlboro got me.#i listen to a lot of genres. from us country to caipira raiz to japanese grindcore. i enjoy a buncha indian songs even. the scales FUCK#idk#i know this is the American Racism website but can't i just enjoy my countries shit in peace. if i don't listen to yours in racist now????#i dont even got anything against it. in fact i like it. but why do i have to listen to (insert large unfiltered list here) of yours Or Else#i know you wont listen to mine if i recommend it???? like none of it.#a lot of it feels like virtue signaling lol listen to this or youre racist watch this or youre racist#and you do not want to be a bad person do you?????#sometimes just understanding why things are the way they are is enough. you dont need to enjoy everything. thats ok. if hiphop isnt for you#then thats fine#just like. stfu. stay on your lane when people who know more about it than you are talking about it#it isn't that hard#one just needs to acknowledge things. hiphop and jazz and blues are extremely important to modern music and culture#but not everybody likes it. and thats fine. the same way a lot of people dont like white girl breakup song number 469. thats also fine#and like. i listen to hiphop! not my go to but i like it. blues is also nice vibes sometimes. but idk the artists that deep.#as a foreigner thats fine ig#but a lot if those posts sound guilt trippy as fuck for the a lot of us arent from your country 👍

lord almighty the chronically-online-indian discourse around sam is still so annoying. fact is he happens to be a regular albeit talented batter who was just sent there to play the role of the no-thoughts-head-empty ingenue and you mob fell for it hook line and sinker and it pissed you off. too bad! that said if he ever gets a game at galle i hope he plays thee most conservative cover drive laden block and run 104*(258) ass innings and shuts everyone the hell up

one thing about ash and j.oongi is that they're avid movie watchers together. they've had so many movie nights (especially superhero movies) and are regulars at the theater (they're holding hands the whole time)
and it made me think about how since he's dating a desi girl, he's probably been subjected to so many bollywood movie nights
#and he freaking loves them lmao gets super invested#and he's welcome to share some of his favorite movies in his native language but thats not what this post is about#he likes all the songs and the dances#but also my favorite movies are.the srk don movies.. especially the second one... if you ever wonder why i like my men fucked up#or why i think guys with guns are attractive... that's why.#i was rewatchinf it now that I'm not a kid and.. the scene where he runs the gun down the girl's body... or the scene with the handcuffs...#everything made sense-#honestly I'm not as well versed in the indian movie industry as some other brown kids but my relationship with my culture is a little#strained anyway. but i wont get into that because thats not what this blog is for + this is a j.oongi gush post#+ being a brown person in this community is scaryyy#but yeah <3 we binge bollywood movies together and he looks forward to all the dance numbers! it's really cute#he always buys ash's favorite snacks for her! he knows her so well#but also if he has any korean movie recs he's welcome to put me on them 🙏🏽 I'm decently well versed in the kdrama world but still#but yeah#movie dates with him are the best!#he's a very supportive and fun bf#and his commentary can be very unintentionally funny since he's always 😐#and i can also see him rambling during crime movies about how thats not how criminals work#and how if they actually wanted to do something right then-#... sometimes ash forgets what he does for a living-#ash rambles 💚#like a flowing wind 🔳

normalize taking the time to unlearn your cultural historical mythos actually
#indians r DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!#no india did not uniquely come up with the concept of numbers in general.#capitalist development did not save us#in fact it pushed us backward#no hinduism is not an actually organized unified faith it is a collection of folk religions#NO. MUSLIMS ARE NOT FOREIGNERS#hindutva#diaspora#oh so many diasporas have so many things to unlearn#if you're a gusano... go learn ya damn history#diasporas who relocated to amerikkka especially: there is an ideological process for entering the country.#you are only allowed in under a certain ideological framework. you need to contextualize everything within that framework#there's probably more i could add here but your family's “lived experience” is probably incredibly twisted from reality#my family's “lived experience” is twisted from reality! i'm realizing that now with who my cousins are getting married to#anyways. um. rant over.#death 2 america#or whatever#oh there's also ideological frameworks for entering certain countries occupied by america but um i'm not gonna cover that#with the whole germany requiring you to be zionist thing i think we're going to see a similar impact from that#western educated literati who desperately want regime change in their countries#regime change that will end up only serving america (and by extension the zionist entity) and themselves lol#we're already seeing that with so-called 'persians'#(as a contrast to the islamic republic of iran)#anyways worrying trends many such#death to america#again for good measure

If he gets a spin off or another appearance, I need Pavitr to be so unapologetically desi. Like. Cursing in Hindi/Marathi when a situation goes wrong, enjoying spicy street food after a successful mission, getting scolded in school due to his hair, having at least one dance scene etc etc.
