Location - Nashik
Purpose of the role
Owns Hindi-language content for the Lokmat Bhakti channels end to end — research, scripting, and appearing on camera. This is not a devotional-montage role. The channel's thesis is dharma-utility: content that tells a viewer what to do, on which day, in what order, and why. That requires someone who can get the facts right and say them to a camera.
Key responsibilities
- Research, script and present Hindi content — rituals and their correct vidhi, vrat and festival timings, muhurat windows, and the history and meaning behind the practices viewers are asking about.
- Appear on camera as one of the channel's two anchors, and record voice-over for faceless formats.
- Work to a weekly batch cadence: topics locked Monday, scripts written Tuesday, batch shoot Wednesday, edits reviewed Friday.
- Write Instagram captions in Devanagari, structured for search — the caption is a second, searchable copy of the content.
- Travel for on-ground shoots at temples, festivals and pilgrimage sites as the schedule requires.
What we need
- 2–4 years producing content in Hindi — digital video, television, radio or print with a video component.
- Native-level spoken and written Hindi, including confident Devanagari writing. Working English for briefs and coordination.
- Genuine working knowledge of Hindu ritual practice, the festival calendar, and panchang basics — tithi, muhurat, paksha. This cannot be learned on the job at the pace this project moves.
- Comfortable and credible on camera. Explains rather than lectures.
- Demonstrable accuracy discipline: a habit of checking sources rather than repeating what circulates.
- A portfolio of published work. Reels, YouTube, broadcast packages — anything where we can see the writing and the delivery.
Good to have
- Formal study of Sanskrit, Jyotish, Shastra Pooja Vidhi/rituals or a related discipline.
- Prior coverage of large-scale festivals or religious events.
- An existing following on Instagram or YouTube in the dharma or astrology space.
- Basic edit ability for rough cuts.
