New Delhi: The first of its kind, a Tamil song and music video featuring two women in love, seems to have been welcomed on social media with #FirstTamilLGBTQSong trending on Twitter.

The music video, “Magizhini – It’s not my fault”, was released by Saregama Tamil and features Anagha and Gouri G Kishan as the actors. The music has been composed by Govind Vasantha and the video was directed by VG Balasubramanian. Since its release on November 22, the video has garnered over 22 lakh views on YouTube.

Taking to Twitter, Saregama South wrote, “Saregama is proud to present #Magizhini, the very first LGBT song in Tamil music ft. @Gourayy & @AnaghaOfficial”. The Twitter handle also posted that the song garnered over one million views in 24 hours, and trended at the top position in India yesterday with the hashtag “First Tamil LGBTQ song”. A Twitter user wrote: “This is a huge step. Though, the acceptance for lgbtq ppl still feels like a luxury coz love marriages in general is not being accepted here… there’s a lot more to change. Maybe one day ppl will start to actually UNDERSTAND others instead of judging them.”
