Why Yes!: Pen-Pals By Padash
Dario and I met the summer of 96. When the local televisions boasted of only two channels. PTV, which was finally losing its boring monopoly and NTM – or was it STN – the cool new hip channel. NTM allowed us local teens a peek into an hour of cartoons (Ninja Turtles were all the rave) an hour of a sitcoms (censored kisses on Chico and the Man) and an hour before the news of a Western Drama (Magnum P.I, quickly became a serious crush). So what else was there to do back then?

If songs like Mr. Vain, What is Love and No Limits don’t bring back memories for any of you readers, you probably don’t know about that time I am so eloquently harping about. For those of you who can’t get those annoying beats out of your heads now, you know exactly what it was like to be a teen in Pakistan in the mid-nineties. Don’t you? Continue

Interview with Wojtek of Masala Canada!
Ink Issue 2 – May 09
1. Who came up with the concept for ‘Masala Canada’ and when did it first go on air?
I’d been hosting and producing programs for India for years, and RCI (Radio Canada International) wanted me to do a new program that extended the focus to all of South Asia. The actual “concept” of the show is evolving, since I only started the show at the end of last October (2008). I guess, the most important goal for me right now is to have a variety of topics, and to have in-depth conversations with the people I interview. Continue
