NEW DELHI: Radio City's loss is Red FM's gain! Radio jockey Sameep Nanda of Radio City has shifted his loyalties to Red FM. Nanda will host the new Red FM morning drive show Namaskar Mumbai.

Red FM national programming head Vehrnon Ibrahim is delighted with his new acquisition. "Mumbai needed a strong Hindi speaking RJ and Sameep has always impressed me. He is an 'asli' RJ. With his experience and intuitive understanding of our format he will be a great addition to our line up," said Ibrahim.

Nanda has over 12 years of Radio behind him. Before Radio City he was a core member of Times FM and Radio Mirchi. Speaking on his association with 93.5 Red FM, Nanda said, "Red FM programming is totally 'bang-on' with the masses. I observed that over the last 10 months Red FM's popularity had quietly increased with all the hype of the other stations."

"Strong programming and excellent RJs is the key success factor and differentiator in the radio industry. With Sameep joining Red FM, we would further strengthen our programming line-up and bring the best talent to our listeners", said 93.5 Red FM COO Nishchint Chawla.

In his new show Namaskar Mumbai, Nanda will bring to listeners a sparkling morning rise that will start their day with a smile. The program will be more music and less talk, giving the Red FM listeners the usual Mumbaiya dose of what's happening in and around the city, Bollywood gupshup, games, chats with dropped by celebs and tons more all in that unique Nanda style.
