92.7 BIG FM launches ‘Seher’ with Bhajan maestro Anup Jalota
MUMBAI: With the festival of lights right around the corner, the much needed positive aura has surrounded us in the form of decorations, preparations of sweets, shopping for new clothes, family get-togethers and more. Extending the celebrations, 92.7 BIG FM in a unique offering is all set to launch a special morning show called ‘Seher’ with bhajan samraat – Anup Jalota.
Anup Jalota – one of the greatest bhajan and ghazal singers of all time has contributed immensely to the Hindi devotional music and ghazal scene. After CDs, concerts and a lot of popular songs in his kitty, the bhajan expert is now going to be available exclusively to 92.7 BIG FM listeners from 5 am to 7 am every morning!
Starting with inculcating optimistic thoughts and actions, Anup Jalota will sign in to the show with a beautiful shloka and a positive thought for the day. The expert at maintaining great vibes and leading a mentally healthy life will then keep the momentum going with a resonating bhajan for the listeners and narrate the story and meaning behind each bhajan. In order to make the show more interactive and engaging, listeners will also be able to call the renowned bhajan exponent and even request for a particular bhajan that they would like to hear. Anup Jalota will then share his thoughts on necessary routine regulations and practices that one must imbibe and follow every day to feel good, positive and motivated. To add to all the melodies of the morning and the brimming optimism, Anup will also share one good habit for the day just before signing off, something that everyone must try to instill in their lives.
Speaking of the show launch, 92.7 BIG FM national business head Ashwin Padmanabhan stated, “We are delighted to introduce ‘Seher’ to our listeners. Mental health is as important as physical health and that is what we are trying to convey to our audiences out there. Moreover, with Diwali fast approaching, we decided it’s time to give our listeners, young and old, something positive and life-changing this New Year. Anup Jalota, the man synonymous with soulful bhajans and ghazals will be available to our audiences through Seher and we are certain that audiences are going to enjoy tuning-in to it.”
With traditionally rooted bhajans and their interpretations, 92.7 BIG FM, at its cultural and traditional best is all set to launch the new show.

Mumbai gears up for the ultimate Global Youth Festival this December
MUMBAI: Mumbai is about to witness something it has never seen before. The Global Youth Festival arrives on 6-7 December at Jio World Garden with 15,000 attendees and 60-plus experiences sprawled across six sprawling arenas. On its sixth edition, this is no ordinary jamboree—it is a carefully orchestrated collision of wellness, adventure, arts, music, yoga and social change.
Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis will throw open the proceedings with a landmark ceremony, signalling the state’s backing for a movement that has already mobilised youth across 20-plus countries and 170-plus cities. The sheer scale is staggering: 500-plus volunteers powering the machine, 600,000-plus volunteer hours logged across previous editions, and millions of lives touched annually.
The speaker roster is formidable. Diipa Büller-Khosla and Dipali Goenka, chief executive of Welspun India, will share the stage with Malaika Arora in conversations spanning leadership, creativity and culture. Union Minister for Sports and Youth Affairs Mansukhbhai Mandaviya will also attend, reinforcing GYF’s reach into the corridors of power.
But this is not mere talk. The Solaris Mainstage promises concerts from renowned Indian artists. Innerverse delivers a 360-degree LED spectacle of art, technology and sound. The Love and Care Arena houses hands-on projects spanning women’s empowerment, child education, rural upliftment and animal welfare. India’s largest outdoor sound-healing experience awaits. An inflatable obstacle course, neon drifter karts and open-sky bouldering cater to thrill-seekers.
Some have branded GYF the “Coachella of Consciousness.” Others call it “India’s Largest Sober Festival.” Spiritual visionary Pujya Gurudevshri Rakeshji, who inspired the festival, will deliver the Wisdom Masterclass. Every rupee goes to charity.
After Mumbai comes Kolkata on 14 December. New York looms next year. For one weekend in December, Mumbai becomes the epicentre of youth-driven change—and nothing will be quite the same after.
