History of Raj Television Network Ltd.

Raj Television Network Limited [RTNLs] was incorporated on 3rd June 1994 as a public limited Comp. with the objective of carrying entertainment business. Our Comp. was promoted by Mr. M. Raajhendhran, Mr. M. Rajaratnam, Mr. M. Raveendran & Mr. M. Regunathan. The registered office of our Comp. is situated at 32 Poes Road, 2nd Street, Teynampet Chennai, Tamilnadu.

Raj Group consisting of all the four brothers commenced operations in 1983, primarily as a videocassette lending library, under the name of 'Raj Video Vision'. The group started acquiring rights for Tamil feature films from various producers from 1984 onwards. During this period, the group also started acquiring the television, cable, overseas & other rights associated with the movies.

In 1987, Raj Group ventured into the media & entertainment business with the setting up of an integrated studio viz. 'Rajendras'. The facilities in the studio were used by independent movie & serial producers. Raj Group also commenced the production & export of tele-serials, movies & other programmes using the studio & exported 35mm movies & tele-serials to various countries including Malaysia, Singapore, UK, U.A.E, & others. This helped the group to building up a brand image with the various overseas parties.

During the year 1992-93, the Raj Group was among the first private producers to be allotted airtime by Doordarshan Metro Channel [Madrass] by taking air time slots during the prime time slot from 8:00 pm to 8:30 pm, for three days a week by producing film & song based programmes which were very popular with the South Indian audience.

Raj Group next foray into Television broadcasting business was by launching its 24 hour Tamil channel viz. 'Raj TV' on 14 October 1994. The vast storehouse of film rights, which the Raj group built up over a period of time, is what sustained the channel in the initial years. Initially the channel was functioning with main revenues from airtime sales.

The Channel grew from strength to strength, & today is positioned as the 'People Channel'.
