First blog Radio was extinct till 2014 : Man Ki baat now a world famous program on All India Radio by our beloved Pradhan Mantri ji Shri Narendra Modi ji. Another i wrote blog. After so many episodes it is still one of the most listened program. I May be correct in saying that instead of most listened it is also one of the most watched program on TV? this is surprising and amazing to me. I have been watching Doordarshan since 1977 continuously and this program (Man Ki Baat) baffles and breaks all notions about what a RADIO program is all about?
I had an opportunity to attend a lecture by Shri K K Nayyar ji of All India Radio. He came as guest lecturer/or resource person for a workshop on "writing for TV & Radio" organised by Centre for Creative Writing & Production(CCWP), IIT Kanpur. I am sure Shri Nayyar ji would have been surprised to see the popularity of this program Man Ki Baat on Radio and Television both. Originally planned as Radio talk type of program, where celebrities are chosen to broadcast their address through radio. Three decades earlier it was the only OPTION to reach every corner of country & to the people. Shri K K Nayyar ji often described difference of Radio & Television programming.
At All India Radio Station building near Harsh nagar, Kanpur we went for demonstration & learning about making of radio programs. We were given to listen an interview of writer Shri Giriraj Kishor by Dr Smt Madhulekha Vidyarthi ji. First sentence she mentioned him as suvikhyat writer सुविख्यात लेखक, immediately he interrupted saying that i am not famous but Vikhyat कुख्यात . Dr Madhulekha Vidyarthi ji i knew, she was teaching Hindi to us in PPN Degree College-Kanpur. Shri Nayyar ji mentioned on this and told see how impression of interview was spoiled by this single comment. Thus choosing correct words are very much important.
