I'm highly disappointed in this month's Zing Issue. I've never had to say anything because I've loved all the issues since it started until now. First off, why are old photo shoot pics being shown of Kritika? If pictures of her would be shown, you should show new ones or else it gives all the readers false hope ... that's what we were all assuming when we saw her on the front cover.
Also, all the articles were great to read but HIGHLY disappointed about the 10 not so friendly couples. I'm a huge fan of Arjun and Rati and I understand if any gossip would go on about them because media is media, but accusing Rati of 'superiority...' 🤔 that's a bit bias don't you think? And also, in Arhaan and Pooja's article .. again being bias by saying that Arhaan has attitude problems? You also did that with Nishant/Sara.

it is really disgusting dat d magazine has sum actresses posing in a very indecent manner!! actors/actresses can even luk angelic or smoking hot if they pose in a decent manner nd maintain dere real image nd d actual reasons 4 which dere fans actually luv dem. But d edition was really a very dissapointing one!! just hv a request dat atleast 4 d last edition of dis year can we hv a HARSHAD CHOPRA genuine interview instead of all rubbish bout him wid his costar!! If u can't provide us wid his interview en it is ok, but plsss don involve him in baseless rumours nd rise our blood pressure!!

I agree with this! Most celebrities do have really revealing pictures out there, but ones that are published in family magazines should be decent. Some of the pics of Kritika were downright shocking, I was embarrassed about opening the magazine at home lest my mom or dad walk in while I'm looking at it.😆
Even with the guys, could we PLEASE not have them shirtless like every other page? Some girls may find that hot, but not everyone does and again, it compels us to read the magazine when we are alone because we don't want everyone seeing it.

my niece is a huge fan of GAURAV KHANNA...and she was asking me 'what is virginity'? when that ques came while she was reading it...i certainly felt shameful...she just asked me again few mins before...and i had to lie to her that its a spelling mistake...obviously i can't tell her coz she is quite young to know all these things...

I know, and not only that, the pictures in this edition were really shocking!Ouch Of course, we all know that actors don't always pose decently, but in magazines which are meant for the entire family including children, only decent pictures should be shown and I was not at all happy with Kritika's photoshoot. It really made me embarrassed to open it in front of the whole family! Also, there are way too many pics of the guys going shirtless...one or two are fine, but if every other page has those pics, it really makes us want to stop our children from coming on IF.

Well just look at the kind of post you have been making. I could have understood the point if you would have restrained from making such posts and tried to express your view (posts) in a way which passes your own standard of not being vulgar.

I dont justify asking people some too intrusive questions but again it depends on what the topic is and how it is being written. I feel different people have different sensibilities and something which is okay for a certain set of people can be too offensive for others.

Zing Magazine content is intended for 13+ audience. And many of our reader feels most of the magazine content is fine for all ages.

Just to give an example: Ra.One Movie (which is primarily targeting the kids) can cause a lot more embarrassing moments for parents watching it with kids and asking all kinds of questions.

Anyways we do take your feedback and will pass it on to the Zing Team.

Regards,
Vijay Bhatter

^^ Thanks for your post Vijay. Please do consider our suggestion not to show vulgar items in the Zing Magazine. I've enjoyed reading all the previous versions, but this November one had some indecent pictures which are not proper even for the eyes of a 13 year old. My problem is not with the articles themselves, as with other people, but the pictures.

thank u for ur reply...as u can urself many people are disappointed with this month's magazine issue ..certainly previous editions have been better but this was going over the top...and we had to step in to try it to pause her or else it can go beyond further...in next editions, i hope u r getting my point..

many crazy fans here...for example of mohit sehgal and sanaya or rati...will not even look in such matters becoz for them one or pic can make them happy...they don't really bother the content of the magazine..BUT I DO becoz i follow it

i dont have any intentions to bring down ur mag. as u have seen i never said anything before...but this if u read URSELF..the content is certainly not up to the mark...the content according to you is 13 + but it looked heavily adult oriented this time...i strongly feel not for myself but for others that 'such things should be avoided' and if something is to be condemned...even i don't support RA.one that is strictly a vulgur movie...i wont recommend the kids to watch it...becoz kids learn to talk and behave by getting inspired by things related to entertainment.

If your creative team works on the more 'creative' side...ZING mag could become the best things in town...best of luck

Thank you for replying back to us Vijay Sir..

And Im sorry if I sounded rude at all. That was definately not my intention. I was just expressing my opinion on this months issue and how dissapointed I was. I have loved all of Zings previous issues but this one was just too much. Besides the not-so-friendly-onscreen-lovers part, I also didnt like some of the revealing pictures of the celebs. Kritika for one example.

And even though you guys barely cover anything on my own favs, I still read it at times because I love Zing! And I have noticed you guys cover the same actors most of the time which is kinda upsetting cuz I think thats not fair. You guys need to try and cover other celebs as well. So now Im requesting you guys to please please get KaJen in your next issue. KaJen are willing to give a joint interview.. they have said this many times that if someone does approach them, they WILL give a joint interview for their fans. Please try contacting them!! :)

Hi All,

I just read most of the comments and can understand that many didnt liked the "Top 10 No So Friendly" article as it involved their favorite celebrities as you love to see them as a pair.

Going by the subject it says "No So Friendly" and I feel its talking of a certain time when they were shooting together and later again they sort out their differences. And the article itself says that its based on "media reports and speculation".

Personally I still dont think myself as part of "media" as I dont involve myself much into the content part as thats not my cup of tea. But since I can see both the sides I can just say that not always media is at fault and not all news which you dont like are "rumours".

To me "no so friendly" certainly do not mean bitter enemies or anything similar to that. There are times when emotions are high and we stop talking to some people (or limit our talks to work related only). And with time things again get back to normal slowly.

Agreed that it could have been avoided like we can avoid many other things. We take your feedback and criticism in a positive way and will work towards improving Zing.

Regards,
Vijay Bhatter

With all due respect Vijay Bhai...What do you have to say about the fact that, the Yashashri & Karan segment was copied directly from the TOI February article...Which they both clarified countless times in IF intereviews...Infact most recently in the Wassup TV episode...
We don't believe a word of this gossip and we know they are good friends...And glad we had some pri-knowledge about it...But what does this type of editing, reporting or copying say about Zing?...
Sorry no offense intented...
