Turn on the Radio!

Radio is fresh.Radio is in the phone.Radio is great to have with you in your commute.I often listen to it when traveling in the morning.Earlier it only used to be RED FM and Radio Mirchi for me but since a couple of months I have started trying out others - Radio One,Radio City and Big FM.After giving ear (literally!) to each of them for a while I can say that RED FM seems to be miles ahead of others (at least in the morning),and the reason for that is the RJ of their breakfast show - Malishka. She is more effervescent ,versatile and confident than her peers from other stations , and the distance is real huge."Red FM Shendi" is a real cracker - the radio version of the good old MTV bakra!and thats when she is at her best,calling up innocent victims who dont know they are on radio and doing mimicries with amazing ease.Radio One has a similar section called "Ghanta Singh",but thats no where compared to Shendi.Red FM has fillers called "Kamla ka Hamla" and "Angry Ganesan" which I find absolutely disgusting ( thats when I switch over to other stations).Radio Mirchi's RJ Tarun is not bad too.Radio One has this nice idea of having multiple RJs conduct a session together,so its more like a chit chat than one person talking all the time.Others havent impressed me so far.So next time you are bored while traveling,just bajate raho!
