About Us
Established in 1993 and headquartered in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, Asianet pioneered Malayalam satellite television broadcasting, quickly becoming a household name. The company expanded its operations to include multiple channels catering to diverse audience segments. Recognizing the increasing demand for connectivity, Asianet also ventured into internet services, providing broadband options. In 2008, Star India (now Disney Star), a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company India, acquired a majority stake in Asianet Communications, significantly strengthening Asianet's position within the media landscape. This acquisition underscored Asianet's established brand recognition and its potential for further growth under the umbrella of a major international media conglomerate. Asianet's journey from a regional pioneer to a key player backed by Disney Star highlights its commitment to innovation and meeting the evolving needs of its audience. The company continues to be a significant force in both television broadcasting and internet services, maintaining its relevance in a dynamic media environment. Its early focus on Malayalam content established a strong foundation, which the company has built upon by diversifying its offerings and embracing technological advancements. The integration with Disney Star has provided access to resources and expertise that further enhance Asianet's capabilities and market reach. Asianet's history demonstrates a successful adaptation to changing consumer preferences and technological landscapes, positioning it for continued success in the years to come.
