While the primary language of the programmes is English, the station occasionally offers content in native languages as well. The radio's playlist features music that reflects the cultural preferences of the target audience, including South Asian pop, bhangra, and Bollywood, in addition to South Asian rhythmic contemporary music like hip-hop, R&B, and underground genres. In terms of information, the station broadcasts news, live events, and conversations related to South Asian communities. Weekdays from 7am to 10am, Nikita Kanda leads the breakfast show, infusing it with positive vibes and daily motivation, the show also features guest discussions on various topics.
