Today is a very special day for Radio Idli, as alwayas. But the reason for today’s speciality is we will be having three editions. After the Southern Sambar coupling with the main edition, we now have some spice from Pune coming up soon! Any guesses about who the editor of that would be?
Keeping up my last weeks promise, here’s Radhika’s song crowning this week’s edition.
