Bollywood actress Celina Jaitley has always been outspoken and has always stood up for the rights of the gay community. The actress has yet again done it for the gays by re launching India’s first registered Gay magazine called ‘Bombay Dost‘ at Oxford Bookstore, Churchgate. The host of the evening, Vivek Raj Anand, CEO of Humsafar Trust considered the moment overwhelming for the entire community as the defunct magazine was being relaunched in a bigger and bolder avatar after 7 long years. He called Celina as one of those rare angels who was beautiful through her actions too for openly embracing the community and helping it in everyway. Celina humbly asked everyone not to consider her action as a charitable act. She elaborated on how this is a human right for every individual and about gays deserving more than acceptance, the compassion and love of everyone; to be a part of ‘us’. She even generously volunteered to help the trust with her own finances until they could find more sponsors.

Prince Manavendra, the first person from a Royal family to be openly gay, was also introduced as a man who was called on the Oprah Winfrey show for showing the courage to break norms. Prince Manavendra also spoke about his first brush with Bombay Dost when he was still young and how that association has carried over 14 years, also resulting in the creation of Lakshya Trust. The event was concluded with the media interacting with the guests and answering media queries.
