Tara Muzik was an Indian Bengali-language satellite and cable music-oriented television channel owned by the Saradha Group, a chit fund company.[1] It was launched on 21 February 2005, as the first Bengali-language music-oriented channel in the world, after being split from Tara Bangla, which was launched on 28 April 2000. Tara Muzik was targeted to Bengali-speaking audiences in both India and Bangladesh.[2][1] It is broadcast from Tara's headquarters in Salt Lake, Kolkata.[1] Due to financial reasons, the channel was shut down on 12 May 2013.
