Indian police raided what newspapers called a "gay party" at a private villa early Sunday morning and arrested 133 people, including a well-known Bollywood actress.

Those detained were mostly cited for "indecent behavior."

The DJs were also cited for playing loud music.

Well-known transgender actress Bobby Darling was among those arrested.

"I just went to the party as a celebrity guest on a professional level and charged for it. I was not aware it was a gay party. I did not see any form of indecent behavior," Darling told the Hindustan Times.

India's highest court decriminalized homosexual sex in 2009, but raids like this are still common.
