Celina Jaitley flooded with hate mails for supporting homosexuality

Celina Jaitley has been an ardent supporter of homosexuality. She was perhaps the only Bollywood celeb who came out openly and participated in the Gay Parade in Mumbai and called for the abolition of the laws that treat homosexuality as a crime. Last week, she was the chief guest at the re-launch of India's first gay magazine 'Bombay Dost', India's first registered Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender (LGBT) magazine.

But after the launch party, Celina received various hate mails and messages; some even questioned Celina's sexuality and wrote that she too is a homosexual. This experience has disturbed the actress because one of her close gay friends suffered due to the prejudices of the homophobic society.


But Celina is undeterred. During the launch itself she had stated: "It saddens me that people have so much hatred towards sexual minorities and people who show them support. It's also unfortunate that people have not stopped their hatred against the gay community but have only learnt to mask it."

Celina vehemently conferred that this is a human right deserved by every person.

The Founder-editor of this unusual unique mag, Ashok Row Kavi, confessed that the Dost team was used to social hostility and regarding Celina's getting hate mails he said they will go online to put a brave front and will fight back so that Celina doesn't feels that she is left alone.

The first issue of 'Bombay Dost' appeared in June 1990, but because of lack of funds and due to opposition, its publishing got stopped. This time the mag is returning with 'bold than ever' edition. Celina has also assured financial help to the publishers.
