Malaysians, Singaporeans, now you can listen to Radio Masti anytime, and anywhere on SYOK!
The only live Bollywood platform across South East Asia, Masti Media Network Singapore’s flagship radio brand, Radio Masti 24x7 established its first ever international collaboration by expanding formally to Malaysia.
The station is now available exclusively on SYOK, the Astro Radio digital platform.
Radio Masti 24x7 was initially launched in 2009 as a three-hour live Bollywood Radio station on MediaCorp’s Expat Radio frequency, XFM963. It was also a winner at the MediaCorp Radio Awards.
In 2016, with the change of media policies leading to existence of only four national languages on the airwaves in Singapore, Radio Masti 24x7 was re-established as the first and only live 24-hours digital Bollywood radio across South East Asia.
As a part of collaboration, SYOK and Radio Masti 24x7 will cater to Malaysian fans of Bollywood music while also offering digital content, gossip, news and updates from across the world, notably from India, Singapore and Malaysia.
During the pandemic, Radio Masti 24x7 was appointed exclusively by the Ministry of Communication & Information (MCI) in Singapore, leading to the launch of special Bangla programming that gained immense popularity with the Bangladeshi migrant community in Singapore as well as Malaysia.
Astro Radio and Rocketfuel Entertainment’s CEO, Kenny Ong said, “We are delighted to announce our collaboration with Masti Media Network, our first partner from Singapore and we welcome Radio Masti 24x7 on board SYOK, which will now offer Malaysians access to more popular Bollywood music, digital content and updates to enjoy.
This addition will bolster our current offering on SYOK for radio, music and podcasts and we look forward to working with more local and international partners as we further define our footprint in the local audio landscape.”
Founder Director of Masti Media Network, Renuka Arora Bhagat said: “We are pleased to confirm Astro Radio as our first ever international collaboration in the region. Together we hope to blend communities across Singapore and Malaysia together with the Indian Bollywood content as the foundation.
“Our clients continue to remain focused as they advertise to reach out to our vast audience base. We are confident that Malaysia will love our content as we go local and bring along the much-loved Khans of Bollywood closer to our neighboring country.”
