| On popular demand, Ameen Sayani's Sangeet Ke Sitaron Ki Mehfil will be aired on 93.5 Red FM four times a week from Sunday to Wednesday at 9.00 pm. Talking about the initiative, Nishchint Chawla, COO, Red FM, said, "Sayani's signature style has been instrumental in making Sangeet Ke Sitaron Ki Mehfil the No 1 programme during weekends on all FM radio stations as per a survey conducted by Development and Research Services in June 2003. We've always believed Ameen Sayani is the No 1 radio jockey and should be on the No1 station."
Needless to say Sayani is quite happy with the development. "This programme reflects some of the nicest work I've done," he said. "I'm delighted that the show has received positive feedback from Red FM listeners across all age groups."
Sayani has produced over 54,000 programmes and 19,000 commercials, a fact that is also recorded in the Limca Book of Records. He has also contributed immensely to radio in the USA, Canada, UK, UAE, Swaziland, Mauritius, South Africa, Fiji and New Zealand, apart from India and Sri Lanka.
He has won numerous awards for his contribution to Indian media, including the Golden Abby Award for Outstanding Radio Campaign of the Century (Binaca/Cibaca Geetmala) in 2000 and the prestigious ISA Gold Medal for Contribution to Advertising in 1991. |
