Anaya Bangar, a popular trans cricketer and LGBTQ+ advocate, recently made a big revelation on MX Player’s reality show Rise And Fall. The cricketer shared a shocking incident, alleging that a famous cricketer sent her an unsolicited obscene photo on social media. She stated that they had never had a conversation before. One day, suddenly, he added her on an online platform and directly sent an obscene photo. She further shared that people know him very well.
While speaking to other contestants, Anaya recalled, “Basically, kya hua tha, main publicly come out ki last year November mein. Fir December-January mein main content post karti thi, jo dimag mein aaraha tha who karti thi. Randomly, ek cricketer ne mujhe add kiya and hamari kuch baat nahi hui, usne directly photo bhej di. Waisi photo (Basically, what happened was, I came out publicly in November last year. Then in December-January, I used to post content, whatever came to my mind. Randomly, a cricketer added me and we did not talk to each other, but he directly sent his photo. That kind of photo).”
When she was asked if the photo was explicit, she then responded, “Samajhlo abhi (Understand now).” Another contestant then questioned whether she knew the sender, to which Anaya replied, “Usse sab jaante hai (Everyone knows him).”
