The ‘Aligarh’ writer shared a nameplate of their new apartment in Mumbai and requested the people to normalise same-sex relationships.

“For 13 years we pretended to be cousins so we could rent a home together. We were told ‘keep curtains drawn so neighbors don’t know ‘what’ you are’. We recently bought our own home.
