Bollywood Drag Night – JAI HO!

A celebration of South Asian queerness

If you are wondering where to catch a vibrant glimpse of the South Asian queer community in Chicago, you must look no further. Jai Ho is a regularly organized Bollywood-themed drag night by Trikone Chicago, a registered not-for-profit organization for queer South Asians and their family, friends, allies, and community. They frequently organize Bollywood drag shows in Chicago, allowing South Asian artists to show their talent. The latest Jai ho night took place on September 22nd, 2023, in the Hydrate nightclub with over 200 people attending it! The night was the ultimate throwback into Bollywood’s musical past, and most dance songs were chosen based on the performer’s childhood inspirations!
