Anuj Channel is not new to the Awaaz newsroom or the market world, who have considered him as an expert voice over the years. He is a rare journalist with expertise in the mysterious world of F&O, whose deals are a mainstay of Awaaz’s audience. ”
- Anuj Singhal said in an interview that he believes Hindi has a larger market share than English, but advertisers prefer English channels.He said
Advertising rates on Hindi channels are still not as good as those on English channels. This again is because you think people with the spending power mostly watch English or read mostly English news rather than actually consuming Hindi news. Unfortunately, many big companies still consider Hindi not to be the preferred medium of interaction. They clearly still have a bias against Hindi, maybe because it’s considered an affluent language for the rich, or maybe it’s traditionally the language of CEOs. Many CEOs declined to be interviewed by the channel in Hindi. ”
