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
"If there’s one phrase that sums up my journey, it’s truly ‘The eChai Effect.’ Six years ago, I simply walked into my first eChai event, not knowing what to expect. The honest conversations, energy, and inspiration from founders and entrepreneurs struck a chord within me. That eChai spark became the catalyst for everything to follow. I proudly say: my entrepreneurship journey started—and keeps evolving—because of eChai. Redicine Medsol’s story is integrally linked to this community. I’ve gained so much, not just as a founder but as a forever volunteer and grateful member of the eChai family. With all my heart, thank you Jatin Bhai and everyone at eChai for shaping, guiding, and supporting my dreams. The eChai Effect will always be a part of my story."
Kush Prajapati
Founder, Redicine Medsol
“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”
Syed Nadeem Jafri
Founder, Hearty Mart
"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
