From being an 'extrs'… to Extraordinary journey of Bollywood’s celebrated PR person
RAJU KARIYA
If a chaiwala boy grows up to become a Prime Minister of a great country, Bollywood has another example of a ricksha-wala rising up to become one of the most sought after and celebrated PROs of Bollywood – the largest film industry in the world.
The WORLD BOOK OF RECORDS (UK) has announced an exclusive honour to Raju Kariya as the BEST Bollywood PR of the Millenium. Kariya has been honoured for his outstanding contribution in Cultural and Entertainment cause by the Indo-British Cultural Forum, UK.
“I don’t consider it as an award… I consider it as a blessing from the Bollywood industry. The true beneficiary of this award is all the media of the Filmy Town in India,” says Raju Kariya, the humble, non-assuming PR who has been in the film industry for over 40 years having achieved a milestone of handling Press Relations for 900 film mahurats and over 500 films released.
