TV Asia was the first Asian TV channel to be founded in the UK in 1990. It was Europe's first entertainment and information channel for the South Asian community from the Indian subcontinent. TV Asia was founded by Wasim Mehmood and Mohan Thariyan. Current Chairman/CEO of TV Asia is H.R. Shah. Once TV Asia secured its Channel status in the UK, it was sold to Ajitabh Bachchan and Dolphin Group owned by Ketan Somaiya. Dolphin Group sold it to Subash Chandra's flagship Zee (India) and on was renamed as Zee TV (UK). Ajitabh Bachchan with his counterpart in the US then sold part of the brand to an American Company. In North America, TV Asia was also the first coast-to-coast entertainment and information channel for the South Asian community settled in the US. Inspite of different ownership, currently TV Asia has retained the same logo and style of programming and airs regularly scheduled programmes in Hindi, English, Gujarati & other regional languages, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. As South Asians choose to maintain a close interest with the affairs of their homeland, this channel is dedicated to bringing the South Asian-American community together by delivering a high quality channel both in content and on-screen presentation. The channel's appeal is based on its wide range of programming, ensuring the broadest possible audience. From news, local community news, and educational programs to dramas, music, movies, in-house programs and more, viewers and advertisers alike gain from TV Asia's unique blend of interesting, informative and entertaining programs.
