Ameen Sayani: Indian radio personality (1932–2024)
Ameen Sayani was an India radio announcer. He achieved fame and popularity all across the Indian Subcontinent when he presented his Binaca Geetmala program of hits over the airwaves of Radio Ceylon. He was one of the most imitated announcers even today. His style of addressing the crowd with "Behno aur Bhaiyo " as against the traditional "Bhaiyo aur Bahno" is still treated as an announcement with a melodious touch. He had produced, compered over 54,000 radio programmes and 19,000 spots/jingles from 1951. Sayani died from a heart attack on 20 February 2024, at the age of 91.
