Dear members of CCGR, Numerous intolerant and homophobic people have sent me abusive messages regarding my gay rights activism and launch of Bombay Dost on various websites including my own. It does not deter me from my cause but it saddens me that people have so much hatred not only towards sexual minorities but towards people who show them support. It is so unfortunate that people have not stopped their hatred against the gay community but have only learnt to mask it. My struggle has only just begin and i thank all those who stand by me in this human rights human dignity issue. There are critics for everything a celebrity does so must I stop living and listening to my heart ? happy to do this for all my gay friends.... Just stand by me.
