Navratri is a festival of music, dance and celebration, and this year Ghatkopar made it even more special by organising an inclusive Navratri celebration for children with special needs. Malishka connected with Janhvi Modi, one of the organisers, to understand the thought and effort behind creating a space where these children could experience the joy of Garba and be a part of the festive celebrations. The initiative ensured that the festival was not just about traditional dance and grand celebrations, but also about inclusion, participation and making everyone feel welcome.

In her conversation with Janhvi, Malishka explored how the special Navratri event was organised, the arrangements made for the children, the response from participants and families, and the importance of creating such inclusive spaces during community celebrations. The interaction highlighted how festivals become more meaningful when everyone gets an opportunity to participate, express themselves and celebrate without feeling left out. A beautiful reminder that the spirit of Navratri lies in bringing people together, and that the joy of Garba belongs to everyone!

Morning No. 1 Malishka

A jock that has been on air for more than 10 years. She is by far the most liked and most feared jock in the country. Over the last 10 years, Malishka has become one with Mumbai revolutionizing its Mornings. If she gets you laughing with her carefree conversations, she also makes you seriously change your perspective to act on issues concerning your life and city! Malishka is the youngest Radio Jockey in India to have won more than 10 awards.

Her fluent local style and delivery has been a trademark of Mumbais lingo. She has more followers on social media than any other jock. Malishka has an attitude that is completely “Bajatey Raho”. She doesn’t spare anyone on air, whether it is the Commisioner of Police or a celebrity who has done something wrong, in her own style. She calls PMO’s office and cracks a joke but immediately in the next link she calls the BMC officer to follow up on the city’s cause that concerns the listeners.

Along with this Malishka's show is known for helping the underprivileged through her programme “Bajao for a Cause”. She’s feisty yet sensitive with an ability to connect with anybody about anything. A jock with a unique perspective, she is the darling of the masses. As she always says “Ek baar listener ko commit kar diya, toh management ki bhi nahi sunungi” All in all, Malishka is the number 1 jock of India and the reasons are clearly written above.

What happens when you decide that life is too short to keep waiting for the perfect time to travel? Malishka connected with Kim and Pankaj, a couple whose life journey took them from Mumbai to Australia, where they built their lives and pursued their careers, before making an extraordinary decision – quitting their jobs and putting their regular lives on pause to travel the world for 1,000 days! Instead of following the usual routine of work, weekends and annual holidays, the couple decided to turn their dream of exploring the world into a reality.

In her conversation with Kim and Pankaj, Malishka explored what inspired them to take such a big leap, how they prepared for a journey lasting nearly three years, the challenges of leaving behind career stability and what it takes to travel the world as a couple. Their story offered a refreshing perspective on chasing dreams, stepping outside one's comfort zone and choosing experiences over the conventional idea of a settled life. A conversation about adventure, courage, companionship and the freedom to rewrite your own definition of life!

Malishka connected with photographer and visual artist Monica Dhaka, who is using the power of photography and visual storytelling to challenge how society looks at acid attack survivors through her project, Before You See the Scar. The project transforms close-up photographs of burnt skin into beautiful landscape-like visuals, encouraging people to look beyond the scars and question why physical appearance is often the first thing that defines these women in the eyes of society. Alongside these artistic images, Monica also showcases portraits of the survivors and shares their own words, allowing them to tell their stories in their own voices and on their own terms.

Through this conversation, Malishka explored the thought behind the project, Monica's experience of photographing acid attack survivors and the importance of changing the way society perceives them. The interaction highlighted that while scars may be a part of these women's journeys, they do not define their identities, aspirations or abilities. At a time when conversations around women's empowerment, dignity and equal opportunities are more important than ever, Malishka brought attention to a project that asks us to look beyond physical appearances and recognise these women for who they truly are. The conversation also encouraged listeners to explore Monica's work and support the initiative, reinforcing the message that every woman deserves respect, dignity and the opportunity to be seen beyond her scars.

Malishka Highlights a Powerful Photography Project Changing How We See Acid Attack Survivors

Navratri is a time for late-night Garba, celebrations and meeting people, but behind all the festive fun, there's an unusual trend gaining attention – hiring private detectives to keep an eye on partners and children! Malishka connected with Vishal, a private detective from Ahmedabad, to understand why detective agencies see a rise in enquiries during Navratri. From suspicious spouses and partners wanting to track each other's movements to parents keeping tabs on their teenagers attending late-night Garba events, the conversation explored what makes this festive season a busy period for private investigators.

Malishka spoke to Vishal about the kind of assignments detectives receive, how they keep track of people without being noticed and what clients typically want to find out. She also brought the conversation closer to Mumbai, exploring how much it costs to hire a private detective in the city and what kind of charges people can expect for such surveillance assignments. An interesting look at how Navratri's Garba nights are creating business for private detectives, with some people dancing to the dhol while others are busy keeping an eye on them!
