What is travelling to you and how did you start travelling?
Traveling for me is therapy as i always say. If you ask me when i started this, since i was a kid, my father used to take us on holidays every year and we almost covered half of India together. First time I went for solo trip was in 2013 to North east (Sikkim) and after that I became unstoppable.
Now, I travel every month including small weekend road trip to big planed trip and one thing that i love the most is I always plan my trip by my own. I never trust any agent or company to plan it for me as I believe that google has everything and also I love to talk to people who have already visited there. So, its easier for you to know the place before you visit it, also one thing which I love about traveling is meeting local people & local food which I never miss 🙂
You are a RJ. Which radio station do you work for and at what timings do you host the show?
I worked in Radio Ranglia 104.8 FM Raipur for 5 years as Radio jockey which is my passion because I grew up listening radio a lot and one thing which I wanted to become in my life is Radio Jockey. But becoming Radio jockey was also not that easy for me long story sort I did my graduation applied in Radio Station but my parents wont allow me to do Radio and they told me to pursue MBA in HR and guess what I did that after MBA luckily destiny sent me to one Radio station where i got Job as HR Executive, and who knows that\'s the turning point of my life.
As a RJ, you must talk to a lot of people. What is the craziest prank that have you pulled on your listeners?
One prank that I pulled on my listener was during my evening show Yeh Shaam Mastani. I called one of my listener (who was one of my fan) on his birthday saying that I am calling from police station & you broke traffic signal thrice last month and for that you have to come police station... he was like numb because that time he was with their friends at restaurant celebrations for his birthday and one of his friend asked me to plank him. He started sweating n all... then lastly i told him Himani this side and he was like OMG how i didn't recognize your voice 😛
This is one of the instances of how i prank my listeners during shows....
You seem to be a fashion enthusiast. What do you do to follow your passion for fashion, beauty & Lifestyle?
Let me be honest about this. I was not at all in fashion things earlier till I did my graduation. Radio jockey profession came along with lot of change in my life like I started liking dressing up, my lifestyle changed coz lot of people who follow you and look upto you. For them, you have to carry yourself in a good way and I started believing in Look Good Feel Good... now this is the day when I never get out of my house without dressing up good... So yeaa, you can say now that Himani is the girl who’s a fashion enthusiast 🙂
Now, some questions on topics other than your professional life-
If you could eat one food for the rest of your life, what would that be?
Dosa... Coz i can't live without south Indian food. Although I am a Gujarati girl, my mom cooks yummm south indian food and I love eating it !!
Who is your role model and why?
Priyanka Chopra is my role model because of the handwork she has put from the beginning till now, the way she entered in industry and how she made her name in Bollywood as well as in Hollywood. This really inspires me a lot and still after s much acclaim, she is very sweet and genuine as person. I really love that!
If you had the Alaadin ka Chirag and Jinie grants you 3 wishes. What would your wishes be? (You can't ask for more wishes ;))
My three wishes would be-
1st wish…. I can fly anywhere i want. so it will save my time and i can travel wherever i want immediately i don't have to wait for the process of booking flight and blah blah 😛
2nd wish... My bank account should be always filled with sufficient money so that without any tension i can go anywhere 🙂
3rd wish will be... I can help people who really need it coz in today's world you won't find the exact people who need your or anybody's help. So, I want that power or sense with which I can help people who really need it.
