The Mumbai Television Tower, also known as the Worli Doordarshan Tower, is the television tower owned by Doordarshan, the public-broadcaster located in the city of Mumbai in India. It stands at 300 metres (984 feet)[1] and is the fourth-tallest man-made structure in the Indian subcontinent. The red and white tower is an open latticework structure. The tower, located at Worli, can be seen from most parts of South Mumbai.

A 32-minute documentary titled Tale of a Tower was produced by the Films Division of India featuring footage of the tower topped out in 1972.[2]
