MTV Roadies does its bit for the gay community

Kudos to MTV Roadies India for the decision to broadcast audition footage where an anonymous gay guy inadvertently comes out of the closet. The three Roadies musketeers (Raghu, Rajiv and Rannvijay on the interview panel) were sensitive enough to protect the youth's identity and bolster his confidence by declaring there was nothing wrong in being homosexual. Given the show is highly popular among students and youth, this could help dispel myths about homosexuality and help gays in India (including yours truly) live our lives with dignity.
