Indicast is a popular Indian podcast show conducted by two MBA graduates, Aditya Mhatre and Abhishek Kumar. It is one of the earliest podcasts in India.
About Indicast
Indicast is a weekly magazine-style capsule where the talk is about stuff which Indians and Indians abroad (NRIs) would like to listen to about in India in an informal 'canteen chat' way that is not really news-reader like. Topics vary from Indian news, pop-culture, arranged marriages, cricket, business, technology, bollywood, and the internet. The venture was conceptualized in September 2005 soon after the launch of iTunes. The first episode of Indicast was released in October 2005.
Indicast was later split into various sub-podcasts out from the main Indicast podcast, including a business oriented podcast - BiziNation, an interview style podcast - Point Blank, a technology oriented podcast - Tech Ka Masala, and a web blog based podcast - Amuk Amuk(defunct).
About the Organizers
Indicast is conducted by Aditya Mhatre and Abhishek Kumar. Aditya is a graduate in MIS from Carnegie Mellon, USA and Abhishek is an MBA from Welingkar, Mumbai.
