Meet Rhea, One Of India’s Best Cosplayers & A Passionate Gamer
Cosplay has come a long way in India, and we’ve seen quite a few amazing cosplays at various Gaming, Anime and Comic Conventions. It was at IGX, Mumbai that we saw Rhea, aka Rheality Lapse, in an amazing Tomb Raider cosplay. We were blown away by how accurately it captured the essence of Lara Croft’s origin saga!

There were some I saw at the Comic Con here in Delhi last year and they were a sight to behold, I’m not going to say anymore. Back to my point now, there are so many cosplayers out there, some that do a good job and some that don’t.
