Celina Jaitly honoured with the prestigious Harvey Milk Award

Bollywood actress Celina Jaitly has been honoured with the Harvey Milk Award here. She has dedicated it to two Bangladeshi activists who were murdered and said she wants to share it with Indian LGBT activists. The award is in the name of Harvey Bernard Milk, an American politician who became the first openly gay person to be elected to public office in California.

Celina Jaitly, who looked stunning in the black dress, went onto a social networking site and shared a photograph of herself being feted with the award. The photograph had her with Stuart Milk (Harvey Bernard Milk's nephew) and UN Human Rights Commission's Charles Radcliffe.
