I am back to hosting on Television. On Vijay TV.

I will be hosting Airtel Super Singer Junior this time. I am looking forward to newer experiences and a lot of children! Hoping and praying this will go well.

My show on Aahaa 91.9 has been going good. The experience is different. Quire an experience because the only way to communicate is by my voice. I am learning to manage slurs in speech and hiccups as well. Breathing in between. All the jazz. Talking on radio is a completely different game altogether. I see that it is not easy. If what I say is scripted, it sounds like that. Like I am reading out.. even if I write myself what I want to say. I learn that it requires presence of mind to respond in a proper manner to people who speak to you. I have my set of regular callers now, which feels wonderful. I also realize I have a whole range of different ways of talking. Why I take on so many personas is a mystery. But it happens subliminally. Its not a conscious shift in modulations. I have not made any decisions on the way I HAVE to sound in my show yet. I am taking it as it comes. There are days when I am reflective, days when I am energetic, days when I am physically zapped, days when I m joyous and it reflects in my show. I don't really know whether I want to veil all that all the time. Of course I cant carry around a morose tone if and when I am emotionally down.

One of the things I have to manage is hunger. 3 hours non stop between 12 and 3 pm. We are not allowed to take even water inside the studio, and my stomach starts protesting. Loudly. I do get some respite in between for a few minutes. But other than this hiccup, I am having a great time.

I watched Guru for the 4th time today. :D With mom and colleagues. At Inox. Pretty cool. Its amazing to listen to the way Tere Bina opens in the movie.. Life is good. :)
