Trinetra Haldar Undergoes Facial Transformation; Made In Heaven 2 Actor Says, ‘My Transition Is Complete, I Did This By Myself, For Myself’
Trinetra Haldar Gummaraju took to social media to reveal that she underwent facial transformation and refrained from talking about it due to ‘fear of public scrutiny and judgement’
Transgender activist Trinetra Haldar Gummaraju has openly spoken about undergoing gender-affirming surgeries. She has never shied away from opening up about her experiences. Having made her acting debut with the web series Made In Heaven season 2, she recently underwent a facial transformation. She took to her official social media handle to speak about it and revealed that she refrained from talking about it due to ‘fear of public scrutiny and judgement’. She penned a long heartfelt note on Saturday, about the same and stated that it is the ultimate step in her transformation journey.
Sharing a monochromatic photo post-surgery with multi-colour graphics surrounding her, Haldar revealed that facial feminisation surgery was one of the many interventions a trans person goes through to feel aligned between their body and gender identity. Announcing that her transition is now complete, she revealed how she did it all by herself.
She added, “Transition to me is deeply spiritual, and not the stuff of tabloids and speculative nonsense. I haven't talked about wanting FFS at all mostly out of fear of public scrutiny and judgement, but why shy away from something so important in this journey of accessing myself? Who cares what anybody thinks or believes? Truth be told, I've wanted this for a decade, and there were lots of reasons to wait. I ticked them all off one by one.”
The 26-year-old actress went on to add, “I’ve lost count of how many people in the industry I’ve met who’ve had work done and will deny intervention. To each their own, but I do not wish to contribute to a culture of opacity that thrives on making masses of young people insecure. I have no interest in promoting bodily intervention, but I do believe in transparency, as has always been the case, especially as a doctor. My reasons were gender affirmation and confidence therefrom, as extensively deliberated on over years of therapy. Others may have their own. Doing this alone hasn’t been easy, but my god, I’m convinced I’m fucking invincible.”
Netizens were quick to take to the comment section of her post to laude her bravery.
