MUMBAI: Radio One’s weekend jock Hrishikesh Kannan will now host the station’s morning slot in Mumbai which goes on air every Monday to Friday between 7am-11am.
The show was earlier hosted by RJ Prince. Says Hrishi Kannan, There was something missing…a tug at the heart and a sense of irritability asking myself that vital question; why am I not doing more radio?…
Kannan has won India’s oldest and most prestigious radio award, the RAPA (Radio And Television Practitioners Association) in 2009 for his show on Radio One which was nominated in the`Best Radio Show- Long Format’ category. Furthermore the Sony network’s June monthly movie line up promotion spot/TV commercial won him the Promax Award for the best promo for the year 2008-2009.

Radio One station head Mumbai Bavesh Janavlekar commented on the appointment, Radio One is very happy to have Hrishi K, a radio veteran hosting the morning show. We were inundated with requests from his fans who wanted to hear him more often than just on weekends who I’m sure will be pleasantly surprised with the new change – with this change we promise to deliver maximum music to our listeners….
Hrishi K brings a lot of experience with him. This is the kind of baggage we don’t mind. We took this decision keeping in mind the connect that Hrishi shares with his listeners. We hope listeners continue to love the station and support us the way they have done until now. If standing out in a crowd is the need of the hour, we surely don’t have to try too hard…. says Radio One programming director Mumbai Rishi Kishnani.
