“Aastha TV and Aastha Bhajan join a number of Hindi-language channels recently launched on DISH Network, including Times Now, Zoom, Willow Cricket, and TEN Cricket,” said Chris Kuelling, vice president of International Programming for DISH Network. “We’re proud to add the two Aastha channels to our lineup which, when combined with the wide variety of other Hindi-language programming we offer, makes DISH Network the largest provider of the best Indian programming in the country – all at the best value.”

Aastha TV (DISH Network Ch. 648) is India’s No. 1 spiritual TV network, featuring yoga with Swami Ramdev, programs on spiritual discourses, socio-cultural ceremonies and religious events as well as meditation techniques and devotional music. The core of its programming relies on discovery of holy places of pilgrimage, education on traditional festivals, and vedic science, ayurveda, astrology, crystal therapy and aromatherapy.

Aastha Bhajan (DISH Network Ch. 669) is the only Hindi-language television network that broadcasts 24x7, Asian-Indian temple music as well as spiritual and devotional songs sung by the most popular saints, seers and singers from India.
