Ronnie Rodrigues Publisher : This month we have come up with a power packed issue for all of you readers

If the cover story is that of the cute talent Alia Bhatt, in the inside pages you will see a tribute to the late Maker With the Midas touch- Manmohan Desai. In the popular Jai Maharashtra section, we feature one of the talented thespians of the stage as well as the screen and TV- Manoj Joshi, who recently won the President’s Award for his memorable performance in the Marathi film Dashakriya. Read an exclusive interview with the elusive Hrishitaa Bhatt, who was seen after a long period of hiatus in the film Ishq Tera, after her marriage to a guy from U.N. Also read all about Jayantimala, the danseuse daughter of the late Sitaradevi in the dance section, besides a rare and exclusive in-depth interview with the popular playback singer in demand- Armaan Malik in the Music section. Also, there is a big treat for all of you in the form of recipes of our in-house Chef Bhairav Singh.

By the way, once again let us remind you that we have initiated a hunt for the best Fan Letter. Amongst the numerous letters of love and appreciation we receive, Cine Buster will shortlist five lucky persons who will win FREE entry to the Cine Buster Cine Awards Marathi Films & TV 2018 ceremony.

By the way, the date of our Cine Buster Cine Awards Marathi Films & TV 2018 which will set out to celebrate the precious art of the Marathi film industry by presenting for the first time ever in the history of Indian Cinema- awards with crafted Hallmark Gold, has been pushed from June 9 to a later date- October 6, though the venue will remain the same-Hotel Sahara Star. The idea is to get more time to finalise the Jury and also the films to be screened for the Jury and make other arrangements including confirming the names of participants of various programmes. The awards would be impartial and unbiased, and more so, because we are not producing Marathi films or TV serials and precisely for that reason, we do not have any vested interests or motive. Since the symbol of infinity symbolises timelessness, it’s the most fitting way to honour the contribution of people who work 24/7 for the Marathi film industry. Also, we plan to have grand celebrations of the first anniversary of CINEBUSTER MAGAZINE on June 6, this year when we also have grand plans to announce the launch of the Hindi edition of our magazine.

We would like to bid adieu to all of you this fortnight by once again telling you all that not only have we made inroads in the Middle East, Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, United Kingdom, Canada and the United States of America.
