First Tamil LGBTQ+ Song ‘Magizhini’ Is Out, Featuring 2 Women In Love. And People Are Here For It!

With the surge of platforms such as YouTube, it is easier than ever for the youth to make content and share it with the world. Due to this, a lot of different types and themes of content have been explored in recent years which has overall broadened the horizons of content such as movies, music and shows. People are bold enough to represent marginalised communities such as the plight of women, people of colour, lower castes and LGBTQ+ communities. I love it when people from these communities come forth and tell their stories through these very artistic and creative ways. Hence you can imagine my amazement at the first LGBTQ+ Tamil Song called ‘Magizhini’ which features two women in love. 

A Tamil LGBTQ+ song called ‘Magizhini-It’s not my fault’ and its music video featuring two women in love was released by SaReGaMa Tamil on November 22 and has garnered 26,18,920 views. The song features Anagha and Gouri G Kishan as the actors within the ‘Magizhini’ music video. The music is composed by Govind Vasantha and the ‘Magizhini’ music video was VG Balasubramanian. Netizens have taken to Twitter and praised the song saying that the representation of a lesbian couple is long overdue. 

SaReGaMa Tamil took to Twitter and said, “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.”
