Mumbai: BIG FM has announced the launch of Season 5 of its flagship show Main Bhi Finance Minister, an initiative aimed at promoting financial literacy and empowering women across industries to make informed financial decisions.
Hosted by RJ Rani, the latest season will focus on key themes such as sustainable wealth management, disciplined investing, and strategic financial planning—ranging from short-term goals to long-term financial security. The show will be broadcast across BIG FM’s network of 35+ stations, expanding its reach to a wide and diverse audience base.
The new season was unveiled at the BIG Impact Awards 2026 during a panel discussion titled ‘Har Role Main Finance Minister’, featuring prominent voices including Nidarshana Gowani, Anupama Agrawal, Soumini Sridhara Paul, Vanita Keswani, and Heli Daruwala.
The platform is built on the premise that women manage responsibilities, resources, and risks in unique ways, and aims to foster meaningful conversations around financial independence, savings, and investment strategies. By bringing together perspectives from diverse sectors, the show seeks to simplify financial concepts and make them more accessible.
Commenting on the launch, Ashit Kukian said, “Main Bhi Finance Minister was created to address a clear gap in how women engage with financial information. Over the years, the focus has been on keeping these discussions practical, centered on real decisions around saving, investing and long-term planning, rather than abstract financial theory. With this, we expect the conversations to go deeper into long-term thinking and financial continuity across life stages.”
Over its previous seasons, Main Bhi Finance Minister has featured a wide range of influential voices from entertainment, business, and finance, including Alia Bhatt, Rani Mukerji, Raveena Tandon, Kajol, Shilpa Shetty, Malaika Arora, along with industry leaders such as Shanai Ghosh and Sumaira Abidi.
The show has also garnered multiple industry accolades, including the Golden Mike Award 2025 for Best Podcast in Education, ACEF Global Awards in Business & Education, and the India Audio Summit Award for Best Podcast, with RJ Rani being recognised as Podcast Professional of the Year.
Season 5 will air over a month-long period from 1 PM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday, and will also be available in segments across social media platforms, further extending its accessibility.
With its latest edition, Main Bhi Finance Minister continues to strengthen its position as a credible platform focused on equipping women with the knowledge, confidence, and tools needed to make impactful financial decisions in an evolving economic landscape.
