And remember Mr. Ameen Sayani, the legendary broadcaster of “Binaca (later Cibaca) Geethmala in radio Ceylon? As they say, History repeats by itself, Radio has become once more popular. Up, Down and Up again… The up-and-coming of FM channels across India has helped Radio return from the grave.
As per Mr. Sayani, radio is a fascinating medium, “when you listen to a note or a word, you paint a picture in your mind and a creative process evolves. Radio is very participative and involving”.
‘Aahaa’ of entertainment !!!
On January 18, 2007 Aahaa, 91.9 FM went on air. Aahaa, “The climax of entertainment”,(see the tagline…remember it..!!) was the ninth private radio to air in Chennai. Hoardings of ‘Aahaa ‘FM has captured the attention of Chennaites ….Why not….?
Did you not say “Aahaa”?? Now read that tagline again…..
When it comes to radio, it’s not only the climax of entertainment but beginning of a second life, which no one foresaw..
All those critics and media watchers must have gone hiding….
Marconi must be laughing, in mirth from his grave…..

What is the gal in the ad doing, rubbing her clit? Is the guy stroking himself?
Most tacky ads i have ever seen in my life.Anywhere in the world. What a waste of money.
that is not true.it surely catches attention anywhere in the world.I have worked in advertising for the past 18 years and before you say it is waste of money you should see whether it wll get noticed. be it rubbing the clit or getting an orgasm, the road traveller will for sure seeit and that is it.good ads. it is easy to draw stupid assumption based on closed viewpoints and limited experiences of the world like the previous 'anonymous commenter'.
