Renowned writer-director-actor Kapil Kaustubh Sharma is set to make history with his groundbreaking film 'Love Is Love,' which will become the first Indian film to be released on the popular International LGBTQ+ OTT platform, Dekkoo. Known as one of the most prominent platforms in the United States for LGBTQ+ content, Dekkoo's inclusion of 'Love Is Love' signifies a monumental step for Indian cinema in the global LGBTQ+ community.

"With 'Love Is Love,' we aim to break barriers and bring forth the stories of the LGBTQ+ community that deserve to be heard," says Kapil Kaustubh Sharma. "Releasing on Dekkoo, a platform that champions LGBTQ+ narratives, is a significant achievement for us and reaffirms our commitment to inclusivity and representation."

The film, which has already garnered international acclaim, is a trilogy of the 13 international awards-winning 'Dunno Y Na Jaane Kyun' series. 'Love Is Love' boasts a stellar cast including Kitu Gidwani, Zarina Wahab, Kapil Kaustubh Sharma, Yuvraaj Parashar, Bidita Bag, Shahjahan, and Mona Ambegaonkar.
