New Delhi, Jan 7 : Fashion designer Swapnil Shinde has announced she is a transwoman and changed her name to Saisha.
Shinde, who has worked with Bollywood stars like Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Shraddha Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu and Kiara Advani, on Tuesday took to Instagram to make the announcement.
She has also shared pictures of herself post the transformation.
Shinde wrote: "Irrespective of your origin, there will always be something that reminds you of your childhood. For me, it takes me back to the kind of loneliness that aches, to pressures that pushed me into solitude and the chaos of confusion that grew every moment. All through school and college, while the boys outside tormented me because I was different, the internal pain was far worse."
