It has been broadcasting since the late fifties featuring music and entertainment 24 hours a day.

I think Americanization of our country and the evolution of the SMS generation (borrowed from RDB) are responsible for these.

Later during the day used to go to bed listening to Chayageet.

Some of the other favorite programs were Fauji Bhaiyon Ke Liye Jaymala, with a Vishesh Jaymala on Saturday (I think it was Saturday) and Cibaca Geetmala.

And then got on to switching between Radio City and Radio Mirchi.

But in between them I pleasantly re-discovered Vividh Bharti.

It was not only nostalgic to listen to all those programs again.

But also highlighted the low quality of programming that the popular FM channels (and most TV channels) have.

What they got out of the guy was at two different ends of the continuum.

It was all a function of the questions thrown at him along with the seriousness and sincerity with which they were asked.

The TV anchors cant go beyond How do you feel to be so successful (as if you can feel bad about it).

How does it feel like to be working with (as if you can feel bad about the team that made you successful, despite whatever you share with them).

Let us show you what the man on the street has to say about you (followed by all the tailored quotes).

How it was rooted in his childhood spent in Old Delhi and his visits to Independence Day and Republic Day functions.

They asked him at length about his journey till this point, without glorifying the hardships that he went through.

But it was treated as milestones in the journey and the focus was on the learning through the process.

It almost felt like you know the person better after listening to that interview.

Of course, the fact that there were no visual distractions, could have also contributed.

Believe me, the content written by people has hardly changed over the decades.

But the way the letters were handled was absolutely delightful.

It shows in the way they are addressed, the quality if the language used and way the queries are handled.

Unlike someone shouting at the top of the voice and saying, u the no.

The flow of words is slow paced but fluent, there is no hurry to fill in the jungles in whatever time is saved.

I love those theme-based programs that have the power to stimulate and create a mood.

Contrary to demand-driven programs, where the demand of few heterogeneous people may be catered to, but the program loses the flow and somewhere you feel the absence of a soul.
