All India Radio Silchar hiring radio jockeys

From legendary Ameen Sayani and his ‘Geetmala’ to modern day comic Mir Hasan Ali, radio presenters have always been a part of daily life of common Indian. Be it busy morning or a dull rainy evening, a radio on the background is still preferred in many houses. Which Bengali home spends the Mahalaya morning without listening to the ‘Ashwiner sharodo prate jege utheche’ in Birendra Krishna Bhadra’s baritone, the famous Mahalaya episode still attracts millions of listeners.

However, not many actually thought of becoming a radio broadcaster or presenter. Not many knew those legends behind the microphone as the medium never offered visual exposure. Then came movies like, ‘Laage Raho Munna Bhai’, ‘Tumhari Sulu’ and the likes and ‘Radio Jockey’ became an aspiration for the millennials. People of Silchar always wondered if they could once get an opportunity to be the ‘Malishka’ or ‘Rishi Kapoor’ (popular radio jockeys). Well for them, the opportunity is knocking at the door.

The All India Radio, Silchar on a post announced that it is hiring Radio Jockey’s/Casual Assignee.
