Mumbai, Jun 25 (IANS): Television actor Paras Chhabra has opened up on whether he is okay with playing the role of a gay person in a film or show.

The world is celebrating June as the Pride Month to mark the achievements of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Sharing his thoughts on the ongoing Pride month, the "Bigg Boss 13" fame TV star said: "Our nation is changing slowly and accepting the LGBTQ community. The purpose of Pride Month is to make our nation the best place for LGBTQ people. We are halfway there and need to do more progress about our mindsets to justify its purpose."
