January EDITION

We have hit yet another milestone: Hashtag turns two years old this month! It has been a delightful run, and I would like to thank all those who have stuck with us through this wonderful journey. When I started Hashtag Magazine two years ago, it started as a passion. There was no business plan, there was no budget, and there weren’t even any expectations. But today, when I look at the response the magazine has received, it has fi lled me with more than I ever thought possible. From chasing interviews, shoots, sets, and action to scouting for the best recommendations, Hashtag has managed to deliver the best of everything—from glam covers to insightful stories on health, travel, wellness, and all things lifestyle. If you know it’s trending, then it’s surely on Hashtag! Time, they say, is the best judge and teacher, so today, having withstood the test of time, I would like to take this opportunity to thank every member of my team –Editorial, Marketing, Photography and Design, without whom this would not have been possible. I would also like to thank our advertisers for their undeterred support. Nothing brings people together like good food, and to celebrate our anniversary issue, we put together a special story on the top food entrepreneurs in the country. We have captured energetic and dynamic entrepreneurs who are revolutionising the food industry from Goa to Delhi, Bangalore to Mumbai. Enjoy our anniversary issue and let us know what you think. 24 issues down and many more to go! Wishing you a warm, happy and safe 2023!
