Red FM gets witty with Sharmaji Se Poocho’
MUMBAI: The FM radio station 93.5 Red has announced yet another initiative on all its stations. The FM radio will be introducing a daily show featuring Surendra Sharma, the renowned humorist and poet Sharmaji Se Poocho.
An hour long show will be aired during the primetime between 5 pm to – 6 pm on weekdays.
Sharmaji Se Poocho was earlier a daily Red FM segment, says a company release.
Sharma is a name that is celebrated the world over for humorous poetry and inimitable style. Known most for his Chaar Laina based on his wife, Sharma’s poker-faced narrations of various incidents brings an instant grin on every face.
Speaking on his association with 93.5 Red FM Sharma said, “Red FM are the type of people I like to be with because they serve to the same people I have entertained for years. Every one I know listens to Red FM so when they asked me to do Sharmaji Se Poocho I said, “Toh aap Sharmaji se hi kyon poochana chaahatey ho?”.
The show will see Sharma hosting an interactive programme where he gives snappy, humorous answers to crazy questions received from listeners through mail, fax, sms and call-ins. Sharma will select the funniest questions posed to him and gives the wittiest answers, offers the release.
Speaking on the latest programming addition, 93.5 Red FM executive producer Vehrnon Ibrahim said, “There is a fine line between slapstick and fuddy duddy humour and Sharmaji walks that line with the type of swagger you just have to laugh at. He has that rare quality of being able to make people laugh with him and respect him. We are truly overjoyed to have him with us. The reaction from listeners to the promos means this show is a success even before it goes on air”.

New travel-food series premieres 29 March at 7:00 PM.
MUMBAI: Shipra Khanna just packed her bags and her flavours because when a celebrated chef takes you on a global plate tour, even the couch starts feeling like first-class. Warner Bros. Discovery India has announced the launch of World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna, a new travel and food series set to premiere on TLC on 29 March at 7:00 PM. Hosted and curated by the popular chef and television personality, the show blends food, travel and culture through an intimate and immersive lens.
Across three visually rich episodes, Shipra journeys to global destinations to explore not just what people eat, but why they eat it, uncovering the stories, traditions and human connections behind every dish. The series opens in London, weaving its iconic landmarks with diverse culinary scenes, before moving to Spain’s vineyards, olive orchards and coastal kitchens.
Warner Bros. Discovery head of advertising revenues for South Asia Tanaz Mehta said: “At TLC, our focus has always been on bringing authentic stories that reflect how people live and connect. World On My Plate builds on this by using food as a lens to explore shared traditions across geographies. We’re excited to collaborate with Chef Shipra Khanna, whose perspective brings both depth and relatability to these narratives.”
Shipra Khanna added, “Food has always been my way of connecting with people and understanding cultures. With World On My Plate, I’ve had the opportunity to step into new worlds, learn from incredible individuals, and share stories that go far beyond the plate. This show is very special to me.”
The series promises strong visual storytelling, meaningful interactions and a fresh perspective on global cuisine celebrating flavours alongside the emotions and traditions that shape them.
In a world where travel shows often feel like distant postcards, Shipra Khanna is serving up something far more personal: a passport to cultures through their kitchens, proving that the best way to understand a place is still through the plate. Tune in to World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna starting 29 March at 7:00 PM on TLC.
