Sayani, the iconic voice behind ‘Binaca Geetmala’, has died at the age of 91, his son Rajil Sayani said on Wednesday.
Sayani suffered a heart attack on Tuesday night and was taken to a hospital in South Mumbai but could not be saved.
In a post on X, Modi said,”Shri Ameen Sayani Ji’s golden voice on the airwaves had a charm and warmth that endeared him to people across generations.” “Through his work, he played an important role in revolutionising Indian broadcasting and nurtured a very special bond with his listeners. Saddened by his passing away. Condolences to his family, admirers and all radio lovers. May his soul rest in peace,” the prime minister said.
