Pehla Academy was launched earlier this year to assist underprivileged
women and children in the SAARC region. Pehla, the Asian entertainment
television platform belongs to Arab Digital Distribution (ADD) -
a pay TV platform management company in the Middle East, North Africa

difference in lives of under privileged children and women."
