Journalist Chinki Sinha, editor of the Outlook magazine, New Delhi is of the opinion that magazines with good content can definitely withstand the digital boom. Chinki who was in conversation with Pushkar, director of the International Centre Goa (ICG) as a part of the ‘Patrakar’ series of ICG said, “Our subscriptions have risen in the last three years. People appreciate good stories.” Chinki, who has been editor of the national magazine for the last three years, said that they were a ‘decazine’, as their editions came out every ten days. “In this sense, we are not competing with anyone,” she said. Chinki said that the emphasis at ‘Outlook’ was always on creating good content and thinking out-of-the-box. Citing some of their stories, she said they had done a story on Goa, as viewed from the eyes of a mermaid. More recently, at the start of 2024, Chinki mentioned how they had asked filmmaker Amar Kanwar to helm a 100-page edition on resistance poetry.
