Sir, no offence meant to any individual, but I have printed copies of Bombay Dost with me, which date back to my college days twenty five years ago! Would not Shri Ashokji Row Kavi justly take credit for India's first gay magazine, whether in print or not as of now? My Respects to His Excellency Prince Manavendraji too!

The magazine will talk about everything from gay fashion, to gadgets and gizmo that gays like, to health and sexuality and other issues relating to men who like men. "Following the legalisation of consensual sex between two adult men, I noticed that many departmental stores opened separate stores for gays," Gohil told TOI. "In this atmosphere, I felt the need to have a magazine for gays," said Manavendra. The magazine will be launched on July 26 at Goa with actress Celina Jaitley. The cover will have a shirtless photograph of upcoming model Rehan Khan. Interestingly, Fun will be printed in small town Rajpipla, Manavendra's home. "As I am getting older, I want to give more time to writing on gay rights and lifestyle. Fun will give me the ideal opportunity." The prince is working on a number of other projects as well, including an old people's home exclusively for homosexuals and a hospice a final destination for AIDS patients on the death bed for both straight and gay people.
