A daily laugh-out riot show called ‘Punjabi Classic Comedies’, which will feature memorable funny clips from Punjabi films and shows. Another drama ‘Eh Mera Punjab’ will occupy the 21:30 band during the week.

The channel was expected to launch last Monday (20th April) but was delayed over Ofcom talks.

Punjjabi TV has become the first Punjabi entertainment channel to broadcast free-to-air. ZEE Punjabi, which was the first Punjabi entrant in the UK market remains a premium channel. The Sikh Channel launched recently on Sky Digital as a complete Sikh religious channel.
