Seyar Walizada, the Winner of Tolo TV Super Star Programme

Seyar Walizada became the winner of the first singing Super Star festival held by Tolo TV, a private Afghan TV channel, on Friday night

Out of the 60 competitors, 12 of them were chosen as the best singers to compete, of whom Walizada won the title ‘Super Star'.

Meanwhile Sharif Deedar got the second position and Massoud Hamnawa stood third.

The competitors were those who had participated in the annual singing competition called ‘Afghan Star', a show run by Tolo TV.

Afghan Star is the first singing competition programme that started airing music competitions among youths in 2005 to discover new Afghan music talents.

It is the most famous programme in Afghanistan aired by Tolo TV.

Tolo TV is a top television network in Afghanistan that airs entertainment programmes and news from all over the world.

Afghan Star is a programme that gives a new hope for a modern Afghanistan, a country in which only in the past few years people are allowed to express their feelings through music.

A documentary film about Afghan Star won two important awards in the "Sundance Film Festival" held in the United States' Utah state in June, 2009.

The film produced by "Kaboora Production", a private Afghan Media Company in Afghanistan, explained the story of four young Afghan artists, two men and two women.

The film shows the competition among these artists in the Afghan Star show, of whom the best singer reaches the finals through free voting by their fans.

In a traditional and conservative Islamic society like Afghanistan in which Taliban are still a big threat, and even holding music and dance programmes are prohibited in some areas and people can face death threats for it, holding programmes is a revolution.
