Mumbai, 17th April 2020: Audio as a medium has the power to spark imagination and provide comfort and solace to listeners. Audible has always been passionate about providing immersive content that entertains and inspires, and to further that commitment, has launched 10 brand new shows on Audible Suno, which are available free of cost. Just download the app and play!
These shows will be available in Hindi and Hinglish, and have been specially created to provide a wholesome experience to listeners during these trying times when people are at home. The shows cover a variety of genres, including fictionalized stories on people’s experiences during the lockdown, fitness, mindfulness and self-development at home, sit-coms and even mythology, to help listeners immerse themselves and to keep them company.
Kickstarting the slate is Qisse Lockdown Ke with Neelesh Misra, where the noted radio personality takes you on an engaging journey of inspirational and relatable tales about the journey we’re taking with ourselves and our loved ones during these challenging times. Up next is Uncovidable, narrated by Rasika Dugal, which traces a series of WhatsApp Voice Notes between Rasika and her friend, while they’re both in lockdown. To tickle your funny bone, Sorabh Pant takes on every topic under the sun while being stuck at home, ranging from children, chores, maintaining productivity, pulling pranks, and dealing with 24X7 proximity with your spouse. In Sanjeev Kapoor Ke Khazaane, the super chef shares simple yet unique recipes to ensure you eat healthy and stay healthy while at home. Walk down memory lane with nostalgia-including classics such as Ramayana, Shivpurna and Mahabharat (narrated by Devdutt Pattanaik).
Lockdown fitness is now officially a thing and we’re here to help you stay motivated with celebrity fitness trainer, Lavania Hajji’s, The Bollywood Choreography Fitness Podcast. And if you’re looking to start your day with a dose of mindfulness, shows such as (Un)Happiness Decoded with Sri Ravi Shankar and Om Swami’s podcast will give you the best tools for a content and peaceful life.
