So it’s like this; I work as a DJ on a local Radio Station – 94.3 Radio One, report in on the Bollywood buzz live with Nikki Bedi on BBC Asia Network every Monday, run a social network called Friday Club, write a gossip column in the Mid Day and attend a hell of a lot of social “dos” (I plead occupational hazard but secretly enjoy it.) I like to think my fly-on-the-wall perspective is sometimes funny and mostly fair.
Remember though that this is Bollywood; aka tinsel town, the land of Prada & Paparazzi. Here everyone wants to be on “Page 3” – a direct descendant of the LA “Page 6” and very often they’ll stop at nothing for a full color high resolution mugshot. Watch this space then for all your desi glam gossip.
Perez Hilton I’m about to pay it forward.

Hey Malini, nice 2 see that you 2 r blogging , 🙂 awesome.
Hi,
I am Pradnya and I have recently caught on to your blog and have been following it. Your blog makes for very interesting reading.
I represent Ashvin Kumar, a renowned independent filmmaker. Ashvin began working as an actor and director in theatre. After taking a degree in Media and Communications (University of London) he began working as an editor. Ashvin set up a digital post-production business in New Delhi before he relocated to London where he established Alipur Films (http://www.alipur.com/) while briefly attending the London Film School.
Ashvin Kumar has got international recognition for his two short films Road to Ladakh and Little Terrorist. Little Terrorist (http://www.little-terrorist.alipur.com/) was, in fact, nominated for the Oscars in 2005 and has won 15 international awards and honours in over a 100 film festivals including a nomination to the European Film Academy.
We were wondering if your readers would appreciate a review on these films on your blog. We can send you the combo DVD that he is launching for you to see. We would like to hear your opinion on the films.
Let us know how you would like to take this forward. We can arrange to send you a DVD in any part of the country. If you need any further information, I would be glad to help you out.
Take care,
Pradnya
Hey Pradnya sounds good, send me the info on missmalini@gmail.com and if you’d be willing to do some giveaways to my readers we can run something interesting for sure!
Hi Malini,

Hey Shernal I hope you got your prize? Thanks for listening!
Hey Malini,
Your voice is FANTABULOUS and the music played during your show is top notch. I love your show and tune into it religiously. Driving back home becomes such a pleasure, despite those harrowing traffic jams.
Keep up the good work! 🙂

Rohit
Hey Rohit!
Thanks so much for the positive feedback 🙂 totally made my day. (That’s my first “Fantabulous,” SCORE!!!)
Well its you!
Clearly you r promoting your show and site on the most popular blog on the internet!
Remember, what goes around comes around
Sadly on the internet people can use your name and your URL and write just about anything Arun. Don’t know what to tell except that I even requested the blog owner to delete those and block whoever the hell is posting them. I wouldn’t post inane comments to get traffic that’s not what its about!
And yes what goes around does come around.
hi malini, thank u sooo much for letting me observe how u do ur show! i’m really impressed by ur speed and efficiency. How do u manage to multitask so well?
Hey anytime 🙂 glad you had fun amid the chaos!! Not sure how it happened but I do believe I have become a MASTER MULTI-TASKER!!! 🙂
hey malini, tell us a bit more about Friday Club, is it for mumbai people only?dd
Actually I have a bunch of chapters in different countries where are you based? It’s usually one degree of separation so you can join if you know a member in that city!
i’m in nyc.
I must listen to you on AIR:-)
You have a lovely blog as well!
Thank you! Yup tune in Mon to Thur 9 to midnight! 94.3 Radio One!
hei malini,
u r d best radio jocky. ur sound is very spicy n juicy. i like it all.
malini, please suggest me,how to speak mind blowing English.
Hey Siddhant! So happy to hear that, makes this job so much more awesome to know we actually make a difference 🙂
Hey … good to see you on webworld … I rem hookin on to FM Radio since it began to spread its wings in the city … won lot of competitions on ur show … and also met some special ppl on the Going Solo club you had started … Its strange but at times being at that level where ppl try and reach out to u, one never comes to know how you must be affecting their lives … I have some real special memories to cherish from the past … and you are a part of em … But it all began from your radio show … and the club u started 🙂
Thank you Priyanka 🙂 made my day!
Regular listener of your show.. Always my driving campanion from work to home…
Love your voice… its soo sexy and fun!!
Keep up the gr8 work gal!
Hey Shruti! I found it on this website which features the day’s most emailed stories from around the internet…
The story is here:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30213316/
Thank you soooo much malini! u r the most helpful RJ ! :)By the way, i’m missing the attention game on the show, plz plz get it back, if possible!
hi malini! this is yr loyal listener shruti! i really liked the research on smiles by psychologists that u spoke abt in d show 2day! can u plz tell me which website did u visit or any book that u read that had this research? sounds v interesting n i would love to read it since i belong to the field of psychology. Ur show absolutely rocks!
Scherezade super idea missy! Do you know any? Send them over we feature all kinds of talent on Tuesdays!
Last evening’s show was excellent and am so thankful that someone in the city actually gives air time to interesting bands that don’t cater to the Bollywood crowd.
You should do some spoken word et al on the show.
Get hold of local spoken word performers/ slam poets (ahem, ahem) and probably make them jam with alternative musicians.
That’d be fun and I’d be glued to the radio-oh!
– Scherezade
Hey Prathmesh believe you me no one is happier than us to be back! 🙂 Thanks for being a loyal listener and for the compliment!
“Ohh I found ya!! (..Ok atleast here! 😛 :D) ..Sometime back there was an FM frequency, I vaguely remember it now but I guess it was ‘Go 92.(something something)’ I think. For sure a nice station and the only one to rock with international hits all day long, and add to that it had amazing Rj’s or ‘Radio hosts’ {as I more likely to prefer to call them} with that interesting quotient who happened to get me hooked. Then it all went *poof* one day and I happened to miss all those ‘mellifluous voices’ to whom I was soo hooked to. ..And now there you are back again with your distinctly unusual style of Rj’ing; rocking Mumbai air frequency big time. So there I am back again getting hooked. (..to the FM freq. that is!!) And ooo.. before I forget “..Malini is great too!! 😀 🙂 lolzz

Hey Mridula! So as far as I know Avanti and Yash met in college and married a year after the tragic death of his family in a plane crash on February 14, 1990. I don’t think he had time to be married before and I’m usually too distracted by his fashion sense to focus on anything else anyway 🙂
As far as Heera Rajgopal goes apparently she was known for serious skin exposure in her films across Tollywood and for an alleged romance with Ajith Kumar which ended when he married Shalini. She married Nikhil Nagarajan in 2000 and now lives in the US after her divorce.
Since you are the Mumbai gossip girl, clarify this juicy news for me!!! Yash Birla was married to actress Heera Rajgopal – where does this fit in Avanti -when did they get mareied? Was he married to two women at the same time? Quite something for a gay guy, what say? Terribly confused – and she filed for divorce!! Whew!!! Thanks babe
Hi Bharat! Thanks for listening, unfortunately the local radio station I work at in Mumbai is not broadcast online yet but will keep you posted. You can check out highlights on http://www.radioone.in till then!

Nice to know you havin fun already! So exactly what all places r u exactly going to? Partying there too??

Hey Malini,
I was so excited about winning Dido’s new album, a huge thanks to you, that i couldn’t resist coming all the way from Kandivali to Tardeo to collect it. But when i reached the radio one office in Everest Chambers after a lot of tiresome travelling, it turned out that the office was closed..I was highly dissapointed. I felt so bad. I really wanted the CD. Is there no other way by which i can get the CD??I doubt i will ever be able to make it to the office coz of my bust schedule.
And ya, enjoy your world tour. I hope you have all the fun. I am sure it will be memorable for u.
Take Care.
And we all will miss u so much on the show.
hey Malini i’m glad to hear that u r safe and sound.I thank God for saving my dear Malini.I couldn’t call u on air since i had a major sore throat and could hardly speak. Shruti
Hey. Yeah, i just got a call from Radio One. My all doubts are cleared. Thank you so much for such a quick response!
Your loyal listener,
Gaurav
Hello! You’re welcome Gaurav! Reshma from the Radio station will call you and tell you how to collect your prize. Stay tuned and thanks for spreading the word! 🙂
Hey Malini. Thank you soo much for declaring me a winner of Dido’s Safe Trip Home album. Its so generous and nice of you. But i have a humble request. Can you throw some light on how do i collect the CD? I am very excited. I am a huge fan of hers, so is my family. thanks Malini. Keep rocking the show, its awesome. All my friends are now hooked to your show as well.
Byee
Hi Malini,
I have been listening to your shows right from ‘Horn OK Please’ on Go till now. I think you are just a fabulous RJ (ofcourse I love Jaggu and Tarana). I remember Anish Trivedi saying that you are the next RJ to watch out for few years back and I had no doubt about it!
Keep on rocking!!
Warm regards,
Devesh
hey jst peepin in…
ur fans pourin in wth those comments i hope..gud luck n keep it rolling
That sounds perfect! Will call you on Monday night and we’ll kick it off. Thanks!
Hey malini, i thought about yr idea.We can do a game on colors and what it says about yr personality, where a listener picks a color and i analyze them? How about that? shruti
Hey Malini,
Your show is THE BEST! Love all the music you play. Thanks a zillion for playing my dedication last night. The weekly rock band hour is great as well. Mumbai is very lucky to have an RJ like you.
Your blog is fun!
🙂
Abhishek, hello! Thanks for listening, we’ll be starting some more really fun segments like tarot next week make sure you tune in!
Hey Shruti thank you for the fun psycho analysis. Can you potentially do this for listeners? Where they come on air and you tell them something about themselves through a quick psycho analysis game or something? Just a thought…
Hi Malini, You have a best voice ever ! Love to catch your show every night. Hey, have you stopped the “Shirley Bose” thingy?
Hi malini, thank you sooo much for putting me on air for t big boss analysis!i’ll never forget ur kind gesture in my life! u r an absolutely sweet gal who really keeps her promise. I hope what i spoke fulfilled yr expectations?
Hey Deepti thanks so much 🙂 I’m really enjoying it!
gr8 stuff..the things u write about r pretty eclectic..makes reading very interesting..may the words keep rolling:)..and keep up the gaana-shaana:)..cheers!
Thanks Andy & Gaurav, feedback is always welcome 🙂 thanks for listening… stay tuned!
Hey Malini, of late i feel that Tiger Time is becoming an overdose of Rock. I think its time we have some more hip, pop-rock and funky up-beat danceable electronica music (sorry for mixin up genres, i hope you get wat i mean)..the fridays and saturdays used to have perfect playlists, but inclusion of hindi tracks is a turn-off!
I hope you are open to feedback. But i am still the loyal listener.
Love ya..i’ll catch you at 9 🙂
heya miss M
cnt think!!!
of course that aint a figure of speech…damn that figure’s leaving us alot speechless
why o why did i miss thst halloween party is a questn i shall nt dwell upon..thanks fr the invites though..
hey could we have newr tracks frm hip hop,rock n othr stuff…
thanks again fr that u2 night…
try catchin friday night lights at 6 on star world im sure ul like it…

sure! we can do a link abt big boss and specially abt raja, rahul and monica, but let me know in advance! and hey, plz don’t take t online IQ tests, bec they r all crap and nonsense, specially the 10 min ones! If u wish, i can do yr IQ test for free!:-)
Shruti!! You are so good for my ego 🙂 you know I always wanted to study psychology. Fascinating stuff! Unfortunately all the IQ tests I’ve taken online haven’t been able to capture my genius! I’m so glad you like Tarot. I love it and have gone to Shirley many times myself. Let me know if you want to ask her a question! Take care and stay tuned (I know you will!) P.S. I find Raja’s personality so interesting on Big Boss, I bet you have some really cool insight into how their minds work in this environment can we do a link about it on the show sometime?! xoxox
hi malini,this is shruti! ur most loyal listener and biggest fan, i tune in everyday without fail and then watch big boss. u r the most rocking and most intelligent rj (believe me, i can confidently say that u have a very high IQ level since i’m a psychologist! hehe)i really love t attention game and tarot on yr show !keep up t good work! 🙂
Hi Gaurav! Thanks very much 🙂 glad you enjoy the show and feedback always helps! Stay tuned!
Hi Malini. This is Gaurav here. We just talked today. I know u dont remember. Well, your show is just amazing. I just love the Late Night Love Radio, Tarot with Shirley Bose is quite interesting. The Recipies by the super chef are nice too. And what can i say about the songs. A brilliant playlist with a little bit of all genres. And ya, i am still addicted to Stars by Simply Red, u r at blame for that. It really Tiger Time from 9 to 12 and a really good companion all through the lonely nights. You rock and continue your awesome show.
Keep it up dear!!
Malini. Good show. Keep rocking.
Haha sure Neal and anytime you want a song just SMS ONE your request to 53650!
