Hello friends, my name is Sarika Kabir, I am from Nagpur, I am a video editor and I run a radio training institute(Art Pickle Media Institute). I have been associated with the social movement for the last several years. My husband RJ Milind works in the radio industry, he has been a radio jockey in Radio Mirchi and My FM. Currently, he is the National Creative Head at Radio Orange. With Marathi being my mother tongue, I might have been thinking that if there is a radio that can connect Marathi audiences all over the world and Marathi artists can be heard all over the world. . This could only happen due to the Internet revolution. We started our first Marathi Internet radio in 2016 "Radio Zhakkas Marathi" and slowly we came to understand that the people listening to us are not only in India but all over the world. People are listening to us in about 35 countries. And this number is increasing day by day.
And with this experience, we are going to create a new social internet radio. Which is called "The Radio Freedom". This will be the world's first Bahujan democratic radio. Which will sound like Professional radio. The Radio Freedom is an endeavor where the people of Bahujan legends will speak of all the people of the world who have worked for human uplift, Also global warming, entertainment, politics, education, business, country, audio of world news Package will be played. Our aim is to identify the art of the smallest artists struggling in the villages and towns in the world, as well as to prepare the new generation of youth for the radio industry. This radio will play English, Hindi, Marathi, and Regional music. The Radio Freedom will act as a platform for every new singer, Reuters, voice-over artist. This means the combination of entertainment and information.
To start this social radio, we want to reach out to people abroad and seek financial help from them. We know that it is necessary to use people's money properly and we are committed to this.
