Life Story of Wasim Badami

Today we tell you the story of the life of a successful man who fought hard and reached this point. Wasim Badami is a proud anchor of Pakistan. His program Eleventh R is very popular all over Pakistan. They ask people innocent questions and ask deep questions with a smile, and no one feels bad. That’s why everyone likes them. Wasim Badami was not always like that. He belonged to the middle class. Wasim Badami is often asked in interviews, what did you want to be? He always had the same answer, that whenever I saw anchors, I thought, maybe that’s the only thing that works, that is, good speaking, what we can do.

Seeing seniors’ anchors also aroused in their hearts the desire to become news anchors. These are the days when it was a very difficult task. He had the opportunity to work on the radio. They used to inform the people about the traffic on the radio, and their salaries were also very low. Wasim Badami thought of getting further education, and he wanted to do an MBA from Zabist. But they did not have the money to pay for the expenses. They didn’t even have the money to travel in a taxi. “We used to travel in buses,” he says. Well, Wasim Badami did not give up.

He started doing research work on a channel called Bus Plus. They would give the anchors the content by searching according to their work. He was often scolded. At the same time, he joined Zabist University. Work in the morning and take classes in the evening. It travels on the bus. It would have been full of people. One of their feet would be on the bus, and one would be out of the bus. I would get drenched in sweat due to rush. A friend once told him that ARY News was auditioning. This channel had a brand new launch at that time. The two friends thought of going there and saw there, so there was a very long line of people. There were thousands of people. Wasim was fond of going to the media. But seeing the number of people he thought my turn could not come. Disappointed, he sat down and waited for his friend, when suddenly a man came. He said, “Which of you has a little bit of experience on TV?” Wasim Badami also said, “Yes, I have the experience because he had worked in Business Plus.” A separate line of these experienced people was formed. It wasn’t a big line, soon Wasim’s number came.

Several days later, twelve people were selected and then selected 7 people. Wasim Badami was also among them. Seven of them were auditioned again, and two of them were selected. One of them was Wasim Badami, and the other was Iqrar-ul-Hassan. He was sent to Dubai for training, and after one day of training, he started reading live news. Wasim Badami is one of the biggest anchors in the world today, but behind it lies his hard work. Every human being must continue to struggle in his life and face any situation with courage.
