A modern love story: Deepmala on her short ‘Ek Jhalak’ with transgender actor Disha Yadav.

When director Deepmala started writing her second short fiction film Ek Jhalak , she organically gravitated towards a community she had worked with in the past. “I’ve always had a soft spot for transgenders.

During one such project, I got a chance to work closely with the transgender community,” says the Delhi-based director.
