History

Star Jalsha was officially launched on 8 September 2008 with Sujay Kutty as CEO and Kevin Vaz as President and General Manager of the channel. A music video ("Cholo Paltai... aaj jalsha shuru notun bangalir") composed by Pritam was used to launch Star Jalsha, which was a first for any Bengali channel.

On 17 June 2012, Star Jalsha unveiled a refreshed identity, featuring a new logo – a diamond star amidst a fictionalised event show titled Chalo Paltai (let’s bring a change).

The channel has made history by obtaining the highest television rating among all competing Bengali general entertainment channels since its debut.
