Film director Chitra Palekar was supportive of her daughter Shalmalee Palekar when she was coming out.
Chitra, previously married to Amol Palekar, is proud to be a mother of a lesbian daughter and has been relentlessly fighting for LGBT+ rights.
Homosexuality is not a disease or a mental disorder. It is a natural condition that is predetermined at birth. I hope you would give up your prejudice and accept them with love and friendship.Chitra Palekar
