"Maybe I would have left the country" had the verdict not been favourable, said hotelier Keshav Suri, one of the petitioners against Section 377, parts of which was struck down by the Supreme Court Thursday.
With the top court decriminalising consensual gay sex, Suri said, "We are ready for a change."
The lyrics of the songs is, "... When we up in the club All eyes on us. All eyes on us. All eyes on us."
In reply to a query about his future course of action in case the verdict had not been in favour of the community, Suri said, "Maybe I would have left the country. It has been a big issue because a massive amount of braindrain has happened with members of the LGBTQ community moving abroad due to the colonial and draconian law."
