Aziz Bhai ( Late Manohar Prothi) had no enemies, perhaps no friends either but admirers he had, here, there & wherever he reached through the strong signals of Radio Kashmir. He left us at 81, on 13th April, 2017.
When I was baptised as a broadcaster and I landed in the Duty Room of Radio Kashmir. A tall, slim, affable person was introduced to me as ‘Aziz Bhai‘. Awe struck, I stood up and shook hand. I had been hearing him from my school days in Radio Dramas produced by the iconic Pran Kishore, Vadi ki Awaz for listeners across LoC, Fauji BhayiyoN ke liye, to name few.
I spent a little over three years in Srinagar and all through that brief period I saw him reaching the outer gate at 8 am, if not early, and leaving the studios at the closure of the transmission.
Paradoxical but true, he usually used to be hungry, perhaps he needed a bottle more than a bread box.
He was always seen with a voice recorder tucked between his (left) hind-arm and the ribs connecting back & the sternum. He preferred condensed ‘mike’ as against the lead microphone which in that era was known to catch sound effects with astounding naturalness.
He, for his captivating audio quality, exemplary artistic modulation and maddening zeal for broadcast had immense fan-following, but as I said, fans necessarily are not friends.
He was wedded to broadcasting and he bequathes us professional ethics of high order for which he lived at the cost of his family interests.
God bless his soul…
Fayyaz Sheheryar, Director General, All India Radio

I often recall those programs of my childhood with great nostalgia. Manohar Prothi was a household name in Kashmir . May he rest in peace !

He was an icon in broadcasting had he stepped out of Kashmir, he I am sure would have attained much greater heights and we today would have taken his name in the same breath as Ameen Sayani…

Nighat Hafiz (FB) Srinagar
What a rich and beautiful voice- quality he possessed, sugar and chocolate blended with morning mist, it would dilute the senses. I was an ardent fan of that voice, the one and only voice of Radio Kashmir that neither time, nor any injurious substance could damage.

Sharing a pic taken in the studios of Radio Kashmir Rkj Jammu presenting Tuhadi Chthi Mili famous programme with Manohar Prothi Ji…Munshi Chachu of the programme..loved by many .Prothi ji left for his heavenly abode on 13th April 2017. Will be missed by millions of people all accross valley where he served for all his life. He will be missed alll accross Jammu where he slentvlige after retirement presenting Punjabi programme. He will be missed by listeners across North India and Pakistan.
This pic was clicked about two years ago, while recording Punjabi Programme with Manohar Prothi Ji, the famous anchor of ‘Waadi ki Awaaz’ of Radio Kashmir Srinagar. One of my sweetest memory. He was a craze for listeners and remained equally popular with listeners of Radio Kashmir Jammu.

It is sad Manohar ji is no more. I vividly remember the fateful day, Republic Day 1995 parade at MA Stadium Jammu along with Manohar ji were making running commentary when ghastlly bomb blasts disturbed the proceedings. Manohar ji joined me consoling the participating children and moved them away from ground and stayed with me for quite long time in the ground till the same was taken over by security agencies. His agility, fearlessness was marvellous. Prothi ji was a nice man. Whenever, he came to Radio Jammu studios, he did see me and appreciated my productions. Salutes to him.

Some one like Fayaz Fayyaz Sheheryar needs to write the history of broadcasting in Kashmir.
Part of my feelings could be attributed to my being a Kashmiri but I believe there has hardly been an institution in our country post independence, that could match the contribution of Radio Kashmir in exploring the civilizational strength of Kashmir and using the medium for its promotion. That is apart from its outstanding role in promoting awareness in other fields.
Manohar Prothi was one of the prominent voices among a procession of greats that defined RK and in turn ws defined by it. RIP
