Pavetraa, one of the hosts of the Saravedi Talk Show, is a multifaceted talent who has made a remarkable transition from a background in aviation to the media industry. Despite the stark contrast between her previous career and her current role, she has excelled and become a favorite among audiences as an exceptional host. Since her debut in the media and entertainment industry, Pavetraa has continuously elevated her performance and presence. She serves as an inspiring example, demonstrating that embracing new challenges and pursuing different career paths can lead to success and personal growth.
When asked what inspired her to transition into the media industry after her career in aviation, she shared, “I have always had a passion for connecting with people beyond just traveling.”
The media industry offers her a platform to connect with a diverse range of people and talents, which allows her to learn from and be inspired by others. Reflecting on the challenges she has encountered, she acknowledges that difficulties are common in any field. However, despite these challenges, she chose to pursue a career in media because of her deep desire to explore and contribute to the industry. This demonstrates her enthusiasm and determination to succeed in her career.
Asking her, “As a host of the Astro Saravedi Show, what do you find most fulfilling about your role, and how does it compare to your previous experiences in the aviation industry and media?” she explains that the constant research and exploration are the most rewarding aspects. In aviation, thorough preparation was essential; we consistently reviewed books and papers before flights to ensure our safety knowledge was up-to-date. Similarly, as a host, she delves into topics and keeps herself informed before each show. This continuous learning process makes the role exciting and rewarding.
Pavetraa is not only a host on Saravedi but also a successful entrepreneur. She runs her own homemade coconut oil business, named ‘Vreeksha,’ which she manages effectively. In addition to her business, she creates and shares engaging content with her audience. Initially, balancing these multiple roles was challenging for her, but through perseverance and continuous effort, she adapted to the demands of her responsibilities. Her determination and hard work have driven her forward. Pavetraa also credits her supportive family, who have been a vital pillar of support throughout her journey.
The beginning was challenging, but fortunately, I have an understanding support system, so I wouldn’t even call it struggling. I do have to manage my time carefully, but at least I’m not alone, thanks to my family.
For individuals transitioning from different professional backgrounds into a media career, she highlighted the crucial need to invest in self-care and grooming. In the age of social media, where the pressure to present oneself effectively is heightened, it is important to prioritize artistry and talent over mere fame. Success in the media industry requires more than just a polished appearance; it demands a strong foundation in relevant skills. The competitive nature of the field means that without well-developed abilities and a genuine talent, breaking through can be particularly challenging. Investing time and effort into mastering these skills can significantly increase the chances of success in this dynamic and demanding industry.
As she continues to refine her skills and expand her career as a host, she has set her sights on some ambitious goals. One of her key aspirations is to eventually create and host her own show. This could take various forms, such as an engaging talk show where she interviews prominent figures from different fields, offering viewers unique insights and inspiring stories. Alternatively, she envisions hosting a dynamic game show that captivates audiences with entertainment and excitement. Her enthusiasm for these future projects reflects her desire to make a significant impact in the media industry.
When asked what excites her the most about the future of media, she responds with enthusiasm, “The future of media is incredibly exciting because it is a rapidly evolving field that impacts almost everyone’s daily life. With people spending at least two hours a day engaging with media on their TVs or phones, the opportunities for innovation and influence are vast. This era of media offers a unique platform to spread valuable and uplifting content that can positively impact individuals and communities. Embracing these opportunities, I am eager to use media to create and share content that not only entertains but also enriches and benefits people, making a meaningful difference in their lives.”
