Bobby Darling (born Pankaj Sharma) is an Indian trans woman actress active in Bollywood and regional Indian films, celebrity, reality show participant, and model.[1][2][3] Before transitioning she appeared in the Limca Book of Records for doing 18 roles as a gay man by the time she was 23 years old.[4]
In 2006 Darling came into wider Indian prominence when cast in the first season reality TV programme Bigg Boss, which follows theBig Brother format, which was first developed by Endemol in the Netherlands. Darling was also the first person representing sexuality minorities which has continued on the show.[5] She has since appeared on other shows, and media, and made appearances while continuing her acting career.[6]
In 2013 Darling was honoured to be performing for the first time in her career a mujra dance originated by tawaif (courtesans) during the Mughal era, and presently performed where Mughal culture is prevalent, such as Pakistan and India, often pairing a modern form with popular local music.[7]

Personal life[edit]
Darling was born in Delhi, India. A homosexual from a young age, Pankaj ran into problems with her family due to her sexual orientation.[8] Her mother died when Darling was a teenager.[9] She said in a 2009 interview that her appearance on the reality show Sacch Ka Saamna (Hindi: सच का सामना, "Facing the Truth"), the Indian version of the popular American show The Moment of Truth, which itself is adapted from the Colombian reality game show Nada más que la verdad, helped reunite her with her father.[10] The two were brought together on the show when her dad was the special surprise guest.[11] She underwent surgery for breast implant in 2010.[8]
Darling identifies with the LGBT community and has expressed that her arrest, along with other guests at a private party was solely due to police bias against gay people,[1] "I doubt the police would have taken such action had it not been a gay party ... I did not see any form of indecent behaviour."[12][13] She has been a vocal supporter of LGBT rights.[14]
