Adhila and Noora, originally from Saudi Arabia, have not only raised eyebrows but also received applause for participating in the show together. Their appearance marks a bold and inspiring step toward LGBTQ+ visibility in mainstream media.
Adhila Nasarin and Fathima Noora met as classmates in 12th grade while studying in Saudi Arabia. Their friendship blossomed into a romantic relationship over time.
Interestingly, their families were close friends and unaware of the girls’ romantic involvement. Hoping to continue their education, both were sent to the same college in Kozhikode, Kerala, where they planned to come out to their families after graduation.
However, when their relationship came to light, both families strongly opposed it, citing “religious and social” reasons and labeling their bond as “unnatural.”
After the opposition intensified, the couple sought shelter at a safe house in Kozhikode. Reports suggest that Adhila was allegedly assaulted by her family and forcibly taken back home under false promises of acceptance. Meanwhile, Noora’s family filed a police complaint accusing Adhila of kidnapping their daughter.
Determined to reunite with her partner, Adhila approached the Kerala High Court with a habeas corpus petition, alleging that Noora was being held against her will and subjected to conversion therapy. She also took to social media, drawing public attention to their plight.
In a landmark ruling, the Kerala High Court recognized their right to live together, affirming it as a matter of personal liberty and informed consent. The judgment was hailed as a progressive step forward for LGBTQ+ rights in India.
Following the verdict, Adhila and Noora openly declared their live-in relationship. A same-sex wedding-themed photoshoot featuring the couple quickly went viral on social media.
Despite facing widespread trolling and bullying, the couple continued to share snippets of their life from cooking videos to daily vlogs. Professionally, both are working as cybersecurity analysts.
