On a tangent, I don't think I've ever met an openly gay Indian either and I work and friends with lots of Indians. There is a lady in my club who seems to be lesbian but she never explicitly said if she is.
I understand in Muslim society being gay is forbidden, but I would have thought that India would be more open on lgbt because most are Hindu and with a huge portions of other religions. I'm curious if lgbt is taboo in India despite the historical and continued presence of hijra community there.
