In the video, Nishant can be seen performing and a voice-over can be heard in the background which said, 'Why are you wearing women’s clothes even though you’re a boy?' in the middle of the performance. 

The heart-melting dance performance was lauded by the judges. KJo got emotional and revealed that the performance moved him so much that he felt 'numb' at the end of it. 

The director-producer said in Hindi, 'Main khud inn galiyon se guzar chuka hoon (I've walked these very same streets and I understand how difficult it is.)'

Madhuri Dixit Nene mentioned that society is still not as welcoming to the LGBTQIA+ community as one would have liked. 

Earlier, Dutee Chand was also lauded for her debut performance. Dutee, who is India's first athlete to publicly come out as a lesbian, said on the show that 'love sees no gender, caste, and color.'
