MUMBAI: There are many celebrities who have changed their sex identity as that’s what they have realised they are.

It’s not easy to have a sex change and it takes a lot of courage and determination to do so. There are times when society looks down upon them and starts judging and passing comments on them.

But kudos to all of them, as they are so confident about who they are and love themselves the way they are.

They know how to hit back at people who judge them and are not afraid to live their life.

Sometimes, they are even rejected by the family members as they feel ashamed to accept them.
