Gemini TV

In the early 1990’s, just as Satellite Television, that was launched in India, P.Kiran and his brothers Ravi Shanker Prasad and Manohar Prasad realized that every region with a strong film industry could also support regional television channels, as the viewers would want to consume content in their own native language. With this in mind, on 9th February 1995, they launched Gemini TV, the first private satellite channel in the Telugu language. 

Later, Gemini TV merged with the Sun TV Network, the largest Satellite TV network in South India and retains its premier position in the Telugu market. Even after the merger of Gemini TV, P. Kiran continued to lead, manage and motivate a team of creative professionals. Today, Gemini TV is a well-loved name in every household of the two Telugu states, which is a testament to P. Kiran’s constant innovation and understanding of the changing psyche of the audience.  In fact, due to P. Kiran’s long and continued association with Gemini TV, he is also known in the media as Gemini Kiran.
