Our approach is vibrant and untraditional, fusing Desi culture with a western vibe. Desi Hits is about YOU, the cool, trend setting Desi who is funky, hip, multicultural and as likely to enjoy the latest sound from Rishi Rich or Bollywood right through to Green Day or 50 cent!

So, is it really about you?
