Ayushmann says, “It was in the year 2006 and radio was going through the second phase. Then we started as a retro station. At 22, I was almost well versed in retro Bollywood. My interest in music helped me a lot. My masters in journalism made me well equipped to host shows.”

Ayushmann Khurrana hosted ‘Maan Na Maan’ and ‘Main Tera Ayushmann’ on the station before becoming a VJ on India’s biggest youth TV channel. It was with Vicky Donor when he made it big in the Hindi film industry. It was hugely successful. He adds, “It is important for all to cherish the starting point of one’s career. These formative years mean a lot as they can make or break one’s career. However, I was fortunate to be around talented people.”
