Mumbai: MY FM attempts to expand its ‘Aaj Kuch Acha Sunte Hain” brand promise and build a ‘Positive’ aura for its ever-loved and cherished listeners. Under the new initiative, ‘MY FM par No Negative Emotion’, the radio network turns to ‘your happy place’ with no space for dejection, hopelessness, or disappointment; a campaign to assure the listeners that ‘We are in this together’.
The 75-day long campaign will comprise of shows ranging from ‘positive news’ to ‘reminiscing the exultant events that made the nation smile’, from ‘positive messages from celebrities’ to ‘having conversations with our listeners’ and last but definitely not the least, from ‘motivating excerpts of Bhagwat’ to ‘playing cheerful music from the past as well as the present’. Apart from this, the network has also launched a special top of the hour anthem for the initiative.
“The second wave of the pandemic has filled everyone with negative emotions. Somehow, feelings of fear, guilt, loneliness, and depression have taken over our daily lives. Usually, MY FM mirrors the emotions largely displayed by our cities. However, we are an eternally optimistic brand, and this time, we need to help our cities come out of this negative zone. With the absence of family-entertainment options across media, we have come up with a bouquet of innovative programs for our listeners”, says Rahul Namjoshi, COO, MY FM.
