Tharu International Service is a live international radio station incorporated with Internet streaming (in radio broadcasting) all around the world. It can be listened to using Windows Media Player or Winamp or through websites which embed the Tharu Player.

There is a list of around 5,000 songs displayed in the parent web site and any listener can add songs directly to the play list. The song play list in the Tharu studio is automatically uploaded to the parent web site, and currently-playing song information (such as artist, composer, director and comments) can be seen in the parent web site or media player.
