Namma bengaLoorinalli Jaanapada Jaatre

Note: The post is in Kannada
Namma bengaLoorinalli Jaanapada Jaatre. I think you all must have heard about what Iӭ talking about !!!!!! There is a whole Jaanapada feast arranged for all of us in front of Vidhana Soudha (opposite High Court), tomorrow and day after. The event starts at 5.30 pm with a SURPRISE BANG inauguration. There are beautiful stalls of Handloom and handicrafts awiting out there. Specially for people who are new to BengaLooru, this event is one of its kind and is celebrated at such a Ҭarge scaleҠin BengaLooru for the FIRST TIME.

And if you are expecting pizzas and burgers out thereŅŅ. Be sure to be disappointed coz, you will find only kajjaya, akki roTTi, raagi roTTi and purely stuff which you donӴ find everyday. Im sure its going to tickle your tastebudsŠAnd if you are waiting to see a disco, well!!! Im sure you would shake a leg with dollukuNita, hooja kuNita, paTTada kuNita, veeragaase, kamsaaLe, hulivesha, and many many more dance forms which you may not even be aware of. Trust me, its gonna get up and make you dance J

If you are wondering how much this is going to cost you, then it is ABSOLUTELY FREE, no tickets. The only thing which is expected out of you is get up, scream, whistle, clap and have the time of your life.

Oh forgot the main thing. The Program starts at 5.30pm on Saturday and Sunday, 13th and 14th of October. This happens in front of Vidhana Soudha. So banni enjoy maaDi, and get all your friends who are new to BengaLooru, as this is not an event which you would see everday

Will they make it BIG?

Now we have another radio station in Bangalore – Radio BIG (92.7).Upendra is playing the role of brand ambassador for this radio station. They have very familiar faces as RJs like Sihi Kahi Chandru, Actress Sindu and Uppi himself will be hosting one of the shows. Check the image below to see how many you can find. As of now they are playing really good Kannada Songs. Well probably they may force me to change the default radio station in my car audio. The star Upendra feels

” I am very happy to be associated with BIG 92.7 FM. I am sure the programs, the content and the overall package of the station will connect with the listeners like never before. Radio is a rapidly growing format of entertainment and associating with BIG 92.7 FM, gives me yet another opportunity to interact with my fans.”

They are on web here

There are more than seven radio channels in Bangalore now. And everybody has got their own kind of channel to listen and enjoy. I am just waiting to see who will make it big?
