Has there been resurgence of sci-fi in India?

I want to state
 
"Of late, there has been a resurgence of science fiction in India."  I advance the following facts to support it:
 
1. There is now an exclusively quarterly sci-fi magazine in Hindi being published, started about 6 years ago (Vigyan katha)
2. The most popular Indian science magazine Science reporter has started publishing sci-fi regularly
3. A forum by name Indiansciencefiction has been started
4. A national convention on science fiction has become a regular feature for the past few years
4. Movies like ... have a little semblence of sci- fi.
 
Would you like to add something friends?
