Pooja Sharma Rekha Pooja Sharma, also known as Pooja Sharma Rekha[1] hails from a modest family in a small village near Kolkata. Despite being assigned male at birth, Pooja displayed a preference for feminine activities from an early age, leading to feelings of isolation. She faced various difficulties, including instances of assault and discrimination, which deeply affected her childhood.[2][unreliable source?][3][4][5][6][7]

After relocating to Mumbai, Pooja initially explored different ways to support herself, including seeking alms at traffic intersections. However, she later found her calling entertaining passengers on local trains with her dancing skills and blessings, earning the affectionate nickname "Junior Rekha."[2]

Despite her rising fame, Pooja faced societal prejudice and a lack of acceptance, enduring ridicule and derogatory remarks.[2][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]
