Dream of One Man has all the potential and capacity to turn into a revolution for many!
Such dreams need vision, passion, spirit and hardwork to achieve it!
A leader always has the capacity to turn their dream into a mission and find equally passionate followers to walk the hard path along with him or her.
Today, is a day when we need to talk about such a dream, such a vision and such a leader.
The dream is to bring integrity and International standards to Journalism that becomes exemplary for next generations and even competing others.
The vision is to become No.1 and find a permanent place in the hearts of people as their trusted friend and source of news, change.
The leader who turned his dream into a vision and a successful mission over 15 years with hardwork, passion along with compassion and hardwork is Shri. Thummala Narendra Chowdary and dream is NTV.
August 30, 2007: Not many knew about the standards that International Journalism holds, about the technical prowess it needs and no one knew proper definition of a news channel too.
Then came a revolution in news channels, that is NTV.
It brought revolutionary changes to age-old methods by giving live news and big breaking news.
But never looked to become another news channel among the existing channels and never resorted to sensationalisation but became an example to even competitors on how to maintain standards and deliver a news story without losing integrity and honesty.
It has become an identity for giving breaking news stories and created a sensation. Now, that revolution completed 15 years and is staying on Top as No. 1 News channel among all the peers.
That revolution is NTV and the man with the vision is Shri. Thummala Narendra Chowdary.
If NTV redefined the News Channels standards and became a revolution then this one became a definition for a complete devotional channel. That is, Bhakti TV.
Programs like Koti Deeposthavam have now become big celebration among Telugu communities.
Another crown in the shining jewel is Vanitha TV.
No Satellite broadcasting channel tried to focus only on women issues and concentrate exclusively about making programs that will please, talk, bring out new solutions for women and become a trusted source of inspiration, a stage for women to express themselves. No one had the dare to bring such an unique conceptual channel to life, but Thummala Narendra Chowdary garu, made it possible with Vanitha TV.
It is easy to start anything but difficult to find continued success in any field or work. Shri Narendra Chowdary stood like a pillar withstanding many storms to keep moving forward with all the three channels. For past one year, NTV has been No.1 among News Channels and even after 15 years, NTV did not lose its basic foundation goals and fundamental rules it has written for itself, they are to stay true to public welfare, be an honest vehicle to their issues and be a trusted friend, source that will bring light even in the darkest of times in their lives. NTV brought in new programs like 'Mana Desam - Mana Geetham' which spread awareness among young people about respecting National Anthem, National Song and many praised the concept, execution of it.
NTV became an identity for public to trust it as their one friend whom they can rely on to support them. It became a voice for everyone and NTV political surveys have been so honest and accurate that people have an unique respect, anticipation for them. While taking giant leap in bringing freshness to news presentation, Bhakti TV brought back forgotten traditional values to our community and introduced many traditional cultural values to young generation as well. Koti Deeposthavam program has become so successful that it has been able to bring to light many spiritual leaders, gurus and introduce peethas, peethathipathis to younger generation as well. Governments run special bus services for public to attend this event and you can understand how it has been able to achieve a place in the hearts of public. There many more unique and successful stories that NTV, Bhakti TV and Vanita TV have achieved in the journey of 15 years for Rachana Television Private Limited. Even during Covid-19 pandemic NTV and its subsidiaries did not resort to cost cutting measures rather stayed as a support system to its employees. It proved its integrity and honesty by honouring the hardwork of many of its employees and becoming their security that they can depend on any time. As it completes 15 years on 30th of August, let's wish the revolution, the dream, the passion, now a necessity for many and a symbol of successful and honest journalism, NTV moves forward in same fashion on a great successful path for long time.
Congrats to NTV. Congrats to Shri. Thummala Narendra Chowdary and three cheers to the journey completed while wishing for many more years of successes for a long time to come.
