RJ MEENAKSHI

You are Tricity’s most favourite RJ. How did you reach to no. 1 and how difficult it is to maintain that position?

Citizens of Tricity have crowned me number one and I am humbled that they have singled me out as the most favourite. It did take a lot to achieve this position, not an overnight success as many would assume. Over 15 years of consistent hard work, dedication and commitment driven by passion. This passion, in turn was fueled by my listeners. Continuous unlearning and re-learning, variety in content and striking the right emotional chord have been my tools. Achieving the number one position is easier; it is the sustenance which is tougher. 15 years back I started my RJ journey with a night show and then decided to shift to the morning show. Not only this, I also changed my radio station, which did create a lot of pressure. However, I kept at it; relentlessly. Consistency and constantly changing myself as per what the city and my listeners demanded.

How do you re-invent and re-innovate every day?'
