<b>Neelesh Misra</b>, Radio storyteller,

I feel that radio needs to have agents to break out of its Bollywood content. I don’t understand why humour on radio is so cheesy and so tacky. There is a lot of scope for wise content. Radio needs to become brave in terms of content. Why can’t we have radio plays, radio humour, radio comedy, etc? If original and honest content is created it will definitely work, there is no doubt about it.
