“Gone are the days, when you just needed to give out information about a song. Today we even speak about social issues. An RJ’s job is to be responsible on the mic and not say anything that hurts the sentiments of people. I wish to open an RJing school in future to bring up more RJs who speak their heart and at the same time are not bias.” – RJ Naved

RJ Naved or Dr. Love or Dilli Ka Don – be it speaking about various issues happening in society to offering a daily dose of laughter on radio, Naved seems to know the pulse of his audience.

He completed his Bachelors in Mass Communication from Jamia Milia Islamia University in 1999 & went onto work in a call center for Airtel.

It was only in 2004 that he started working in Radio Mirchi 98.3 FM as Dr. Love. Irrespective of Naved’s disbelief in love, he managed to do an impeccable job by listening to the problems occurring in people’s love life & would give them an outstanding solution. However, Naved switched to another show, namely Total Filmy, where he had to talk about Bollywood & review movies.

Since Naved mastered the art of mimicry at a very early age, it was only a matter a time that Radio Mirchi decided to give Naved his very own show: Bumper To Bumper; though the show’s name changed to Sunset Samosa, and then finally to the one he is known for: Dilli Ka Don.

In February 2017, Naved took a break from his show for about half a year, and went onto explore the television industry by joining The Kapil Sharma Show for 2-3 months.

He then came back to do what he’s always loved – being an RJ! He now has a show in the morning, The Naved Khan Show. So if you’re driving to work between 7am – 12 Noon, you know who to listen to!

3. Indian Icon Award
