Equipped with new skills and experience Ray was very quickly snapped up by independent broadcasters. In 1993 Ray presented the Breakfast show and was also head of programmes at a 24 hour commercial Asian radio station in the Midlands.

In 1995 Ray Khan joined another commercial station as the Drive-time presenter where he made a big name for himself. Ray, known for having itchy feet, left and came back to the 91Èȱ¬ Asian Network to host its flagship Breakfast shows. After spending a number of years on the Breakfast shows, Ray enjoyed tremendous success on 91Èȱ¬ Asian Networks Drive-time shows and later the legendary 10pm shows.
