More about Megha Thakker
Media professional | Unbeatable energy bomb on stage (super experienced EMCEE-premium corporate & social events | Certified soft skills trainer | Communication Consultant | Talk-show host | Digital junkie.
AS A CHILD- I always came up with boring & quite a borrowed, hereditary kind of an answer when it came to my career goal. I thought, if nothing, I shall practice law (as my family has 13 lawyers including my parents & elder brother). If not for law, I'll apply as a professor of social science at some college (Oh yea, mom & grandpa happened to be celebrated orators & activists all their lives).
But, I somehow grew up to be a shy kid with great amount of stage fright, when away from my comfort zone.
WHAT HELPED ME PURSUE MY SECRET DREAM-
Did theatres for 3 years & life took a U-turn!
In due course, I became what I secretly dreamt of as a kid from the 90s, but lacked the confidence to share it publicly (dreamt of becoming a news-reader with some top channel).
Cut to 2007, I was hosting SRK for a national event, attended by thousands of fans which got covered by all top news channels including the Stars, Times & Zees of the world.
Eventually, I turned out to be a thorough media professional with an experience into print-electronic-audio & web media starting 2006.
WHY ME-
Passionate about growing teams and dreams? You have stopped by the right profile. From state-national-international NGO & Govt. events, multiple fortune 500 companies & numerous sports gatherings, corporate events, big fat destination weddings, products & services launches, inaugurations, awards nights & annual meet-ups! You name it & I have held the mic for all.
TILL NOW-
Have been a consistently top-voted RJ with Mirchi for 8.5 years.
Associated with 7 national TV Channels as a freelance TV show host, over the past few years.
Web-show called India Film Project TalkShop on YouTube & Gaana Originals attracted around 2 million eyes and ears.
Have hosted a LIVE chat-show series from Facebook, India headquarters.
Have lifetime memories & privilege of hosting & interviewing top Bollywood stars like senior & junior Bachhan, Shahrukh/Aamir/Salman Khan, AkshayKumar, AjayDevgan, ShahidKapoor, AyushmannKhurrana, Akhtars, VickyKaushal, RajkumarRao, MadhuriDixit, KatrinaKaif, AishwaryaRai, PankajTripathi, NawazuddinSiddiqui & more than 200+ top notch big and small screen actors, film-directors & YouTubers.
Based out of Ahmedabad, but my work takes me across borders.
Rationalist | Egalitarian | Eco-warrior (considering my 1st job was with CEE).
When not romancing the microphone I will be found playing TT or badminton, listening to an audio book, binging YouTube or Netflix & often found dreaming about my next holiday!

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”
