Channel Anuj Awaaz is no stranger to the newsroom or the markets world, which has seen him as an expert voice over the years. He is a rare journalist with expertise in the mysterious world of F&O, whose trading voice is a mainstay of the audience.
- In an interview, Anuj Singhal shared his belief that Hindi language has a higher market share than English, but advertisers are biased towards English channels. He said
Hindi still does not get the same advertising rates as English channels. This is again because of your perception that those who have the spending power mostly watch English or read mostly English news and do not really consume Hindi news. Unfortunately, many large corporations still do not view Hindi as the preferred medium of communication. They clearly still have their prejudices against Hindi, perhaps because it is considered the affluent language of the rich or perhaps traditionally considered the language of CEOs. Many CEOs refuse to give interviews in Hindi for the channel.
