Additionally, unique viewing formats, like premiere marathons, shows Along With The U.S., and live telecasts of international events, have helped us remain the most popular English GEC amongst viewers. #ThePlaceToBe is a very unique campaign, conceptualized internally, and will help reinforce the USPs of both the channels. The campaign will be spread across all mediums—outdoor, radio, TV, as well as print—to promote the new HD offering. There will be an integrated approach to reach out to our viewers”
