Hello and welcome! In the next few minutes you will find out everything there is to know
about Southall Tv... Who we are? What we do? Why we do it and exactly where we are going
with this? So let’s start with “who”.
“I am Kulwinder Kumar and everyone knows me as Paul and I am into Bakery business.
Mr. Rowdy and Mr. Sodhi introduced me to Southall TV and I really liked that idea so I joined
them straight away and I knew that their idea and this project will be great for the community
and great for this country”. “I am Sukvir Sodhi, and I am mostly associated
with Bhangra, Giddha, Song writing and Tv presenting. We thought of this idea of online
channel Southall TV because we want to see our Asian media rise to the British standards
and get younger generation involved”. And then there is me... My name is Rowdy Farooqi
and I’ve been producing music, music videos, Tv shows... and writing lyrics and scripts
in Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi and English for about 25 years... and for me... this is not a life
style... This- is – life... period. Southall Tv Logo Animation
The world of broadcasting is switching to internet and 3 Billion views per day on YouTube
alone is enough proof of that. So Southall Tv is also an online channel which can be
viewed, anywhere in the world, on any device with an internet connection.
Even though we are a Southall based or in other words a local channel, but we take pride
on our global viewership...’case that enables us to take local matters to the world.
We like to keep you entertained and informed at the same time. Our programs are usually
a combination of both, for which we like to use the term “Infotainment”.
“So that’s why last week saw a crazy seven releases from Bollywood... Nobody wanted to
go head to head with Channai Express this week... Channai Express is a feast for your
eyes... The colours, the expense, the lighting and the stunts”.
“Hey everyone, this is Punjabi Tube and I am Ria. In this program I am going to give
you all the facts about the latest tracks that you guys are watching on YouTube”.
“Southall Tv has provided all of us, a program which is relevant to the local community and
local people, and I am glad to associate myself with Southall Tv and wish them every success
for the future”. Since the launch in 2013 Southall Tv operated
as an “On Demand” channel, but now from 2014, thanks to our YouTube partnership we
will also be able to stream live shows and take live skype calls during the shows...
so you can call in. “Houston we’ve got a problem”.
Not really like that... but you’ve got the picture.
There is also an educational angle to SouthallTv... because we believe that our youth does not
have enough opportunities and resources to learn media production, especially when it
comes to media in Asian languages. To provide this learning opportunity, (a) we take in
students for their work experience.., (b) we run media workshops in local schools..,
and (c) we offer free media training to our volunteers.
“I’m Jack and I am producing this promo for my work experience at Southall Tv”.
“My name is Kial Kirlew. I’m a student from Uxbridge College and this is my work
experience at Southall Tv”. “Hi I’m Monet Morgan and I am a student
at Uxbridge College and as a part of my work experience at Southall Tv I’m producing
a short film”. “I’ve really enjoyed working with Southall
Tv over the last year and not just working with Southall Tv but learning about the new
ways in which we can document and tell the stories of our community... The way Southall
Tv works in many different languages as well is a testament to its vision... It’s a vision
that recognises in a multicultural community you need a different way of talking to each
other.., a different way of bringing to life the exiting things that going on and create
that shared vision and ambition for the future”. Southall Tv aims to establish itself as a
modern media platform which provides equal opportunities to the diverse British communities,
so everyone can express their creative and artistic talent and vision of their British
identity. “For entertainment and local information
and for media training... Southall Tv is the best”.
