In today’s context discussions on alternate sexuality find utmost significance considering the fact that people all around the world are becoming aware and open to the idea of it. This paper will explore this area looking at it from the Indian background by examining how society views homosexuality and how people belonging to this milieu become victims to societal expectations and norms through Mahesh Dattani’s play On A Muggy Night In Mumbai (2013). The play however, being written before the amendment of Section 377, throws light on the plight of the homosexual community that was subject to dehumanization and criminalization by the society as well as the law.

Several novels have been published recently, both in English and French, dealing with the AIDS epidemic. Their perspectives on death can be extracted through content analysis. Overall, these novels present a weak symbolization about death with rituals that are not highly elaborated. Complex images of the afterlife are not offered. By contrast, there is a strong theme expressing the impact of this epidemic on personal networks as well as the effect of repeated losses on the survivors. The desperate feeling that the entire homosexual community is on the verge of extinction is among the specific themes that are expressed.
