Launched in 2004, TOLO TV has set the standards in television programming in Afghanistan by offering innovative, dynamic content loved by audiences across the country. Pioneering news and entertainment, TOLO TV has pushed the envelope and raised the bar for quality content. The award-winning, market-leading channel has captured 45% of audiences in Afghanistan. Included in its portfolio are homegrown programs like the nation’s first drama series “Raz ha een Khana”, music talent quest “Afghan Star” and a slew of ground breaking current affairs shows, as well as formats such as Deal or No Deal (“Gangina”) and a lineup of dubbed international programs that hail from South America, US and Turkey including “Prison Break”, “5 Sisters”, “Broken Hearts”, “Daniel” and “El Cartel”.

TOLO TV won an award at the Seoul International Drama Awards in 2011 for its action series “Eagle 4” and in 2008 for popular drama “Raz ha Een Khana” (Secrets of this House). It received the Reporters Sans Frontiere (RSF) Fondation de France Prize for contributing the most to press freedom in Afghanistan for its current affairs show “The 630 Report”.

“Afghan Star” inspired a documentary with the same name, co-produced by Kaboora Production, which went on to win 2 awards at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.

TOLO TV is available in Dari and Pashto on terrestrial transmission in Afghanistan and on satellite across the region.
