BIGFM launches 10 programmes to celebrate the festive spirit of its listeners

...through platform agnostic content that reaches beyond radio to social media.

The time of the year when each morning brings with it the excitement of festivals is here! Be it the morning offering of flowers in Durga Puja, the awe of crackers lighting up the sky in Diwali, the mothers’ love for her child in Chhath, or the joy of again being a child on Children’s day, there is something to look forward to. And in the midst of all of these, one friend who we listen to every day, is also delving in the celebrations with us – our beloved radio station BIGFM!
