Our Story

From Kerala to Qatar - a home away from home.

QFM began as Qatar's first round-the-clock Malayalam FM radio station, born from a simple but powerful idea: Malayalee expats living in Qatar deserved a voice, a soundtrack, and a piece of the place they love most.

We set out to reward every listener with a free dose of entertainment twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. From now on, you won't hear a Malayalee say the word "homesick" - because for them, we've realized their homecoming right here in the land of Qatar.

98.6 Malayalam FM rewards its community with all things native - music, fun, humor, news, and more - while upholding the highest standards of ethical, responsible broadcasting.

"We set out to reward every listener with a free dose of entertainment - bringing the spirit of Kerala alive in the heart of Qatar, twenty-four seven."
