What sets Alex apart from other young Indians is that he’s a drag performer.
His drag idol is RuPaul Charles and his inspiration is 2014 RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Bianca Del Rio. He began doing drag as “Mayamma” on September 10, 2014, and there was no going back. Mayamma dresses in traditional Indian garb. Her bindi, saree, winged eyeliner, and hair is very classic Bollywood.
