Kairali TV is a Malayalam television channel in India. It is the first public limited channel in the world to be started with money collected from the common man. It has more than 2 lakh shareholders. This channel is controlled by the political party CPI (M) (Communist Party of India - Marxist). Currently, Mammootty, the leading film actor in Malayalam, holds the post of Chairman at Kairali and John Brittas is the Managing Director. Other members of the team are: Abraham Mathew- Chief Correspondent (Mobile Phone No: 094474 80109), Somakumar- Executive Editor (Mobile Phone No: 094474 70174),

The HQ and studio of the channel is at Fort, Thiruvananthapuram(Trivandrum). It has a recording centre at Ernakulam too. They are planning to build a state-of-arts HQ in Trivandrum


Kairali’s vision is to create programmes that meet international standards of creativity and production excellence. Today Kairali TV has emerged as one of the preferred channels of Malayalees amazingly in a short span of time. PEOPLE TV is another channel owned by Kairali, that caters 24 hours news and current affairs. YOUTH TV, a channel for the youth is being launched soon.

The importance of Kairali TV lies mainly in attempting to divert the attention of malayalee viewers from the soap operas. Often the news and associated programmes are biased towards its political patronhood.
