A landmark judgement was being issued by the Supreme court of India, after months of deliberations. The order was under Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) which criminalized homosexuality.
A five-judge Constitution bench, headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) Dipak Misra and comprising Justices D Y Chandrachud, Rohinton Fali Nariman, A M Khanwilkar and Indu Malhotra, issued the verdict on a bunch of petitions filed to scrap the law. The bench had earlier reserved its verdict on July 17.
After the news got spread all over India, people started reacting to it including our favourite Bollywood stars including Sonam Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Neha Dhupia and many more. Lets go through some of the posts by the Indian star
