Night Queen
Forty-eight-year-old Lakshmikant Sharma lives in Old Lucknow with his wife, daughter and widowed mother. He takes the 8:45 metro every day to work and drops his elder daughter to college on his way. Lakshmi's life is the textbook definition of monotony. Except it isn't. Lakshmi wants to wear Sarees, put on her favourite shade of pink lipstick and live like a woman. But she cannot. Lakshmi starts consulting a doctor regularly. When she finally musters the courage to come out in front of his family, all hell breaks loose. Night Queen is a story of repressed desires, grief, and complex emotions, but it's also a story of courage, self-love and breaking glass ceilings.
