Vishal Pinjani from Maharashtra’s Kolhapur has won the title of ‘Mr Gay World India 2023’ and now he will participate in the world title competition, which will be held in Cape Town, South Africa, on October 27.
Abhishek Jayadeep from Kerala’s Thrissur won the runner-up title in the competition.
The ‘Mr Gay World India 2023’ crowning ceremony was held in Pune on October 5. The event was organised by the Pune-based MIST LGBTQ Foundation in collaboration with Queertainment Private Limited.
“Through this pageant, I would get a chance to highlight the issues of gay men in rural India as issues of the LGBTQ community are often perceived as only urban issues,” Vishal said.
