Hi all,
First of all lemme begin by congratulating that our beloved Chief Editor Nagesh Pai and his wife Varsha Pai ( no longer – “soon to be Pai” ) on their marriage, on behalf of the whole of Radio Idli.

Archana dedicates a lovely romantic song to the newly married couple..

Hello All……Namaskaar to all of you who have been waiting for this edition from RJ Varsha….
First and foremost, an apology for the delay. Due to some technical problems(to be precise, due to gusty winds, a tree fell over the internet cabling at Nagesh’s end), this 21st edition is reaching you a bit late! But no, we refuse to break the record of bringing out editions of RI to you, every week, week after week, uniterrupted.

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.
