They have all the looks of the hijra save the hardcore mannerisms of the hijras ..
A lot of young unemployed kids join them wear women clothes purely to make a fast buck.
This lot I have shot for several years , these are beggar hijras nonetheless , most of them touch my feet and call me Maharaj, thinking I am connected to religious order, but they have visited my earlier work place too so are aware of my profession.
They keep asking me pictures I have taken of them but I have not given them any copies till date.
