LETTERS

Jade, as a magazine, has interested me from its launch. To be honest, I doubted your ability to bring out 12 issues in a year, with south India as a focal point, I am glad you proved me wrong! You opened my eyes to the greatness of the south, there is so much to know, so many achievers, so many beauties?Looks like you have hit upon a treasure trove, a treasure trove, that even a south Indian like me was unaware of! Kudos to you!

I have collected all the copies, and it's heartening to see how much you have evolved in a year's time, to quote from the headline of last month's story on Shriya Saran, you have truly touched 'sky heights', hope to see you soaring higher!

Jade is an amazingly refreshing and delightful with articles, features and write-ups on varied and diverse topics. I am deeply overwhelmed to see the cover story on Shriya Saran- Reaching Sky Heights (January). One point is clear that Shriya has worked in many films and nominated for awards but she failed to receive any awards. It is nice that she is still in her early stages of career and has acted in many Telugu and Tamil films. It is true that acting was her dream and she finally became popular south Indian actress. The issue is well-designed, beautifully printed and nicely compiled by giving justification to various subjects of interests. This clearly

shows that you have taken gigantic efforts which have consumed your sufficient time but the result is

indeed marvellous.

Your January issue was delightful, especially the theme parks article. I have a trip to Hyderabad coming up soon and would love to check out Snow World with my family. I have a suggestion, please don't restrict such informative articles to the south alone, I would love to know about such destinations in other parts of the country also, and the kind of information you give, no other magazine gives. Please take my suggestion into account.
