  • Dish TV bets on Bigg Boss to flog its all-in-one smart television

    Dish TV bets on Bigg Boss to flog its all-in-one smart television

    MUMBAI: Dish TV is gambling that Indians will pay for convenience. The satellite broadcaster’s new VZY smart television—which bundles DTH and streaming services into one device—has signed on as sponsor of Bigg Boss in both Hindi and Kannada, hitching itself to two of the country’s most-watched reality franchises.

    The move, announced on October 1st, positions VZY as co-powered sponsor for Bigg Boss Hindi on Colors SD and HD, and co-presenting sponsor for Bigg Boss Kannada on Colors Kannada and JioHotstar. It is a calculated play: Bigg Boss commands fanatical viewership across demographics, making it prime real estate for a brand trying to crack both urban and regional markets.

    VZY’s pitch is straightforward. Rather than juggling a set-top box, streaming stick and multiple subscriptions, buyers get everything bundled into the television itself. The company also offers integrated set-top box models for those who prefer that route. It is, Dish TV claims, “India’s first truly integrated smart TV.”

    “Bigg Boss, both in Hindi and Kannada, is a show that unites audiences across regions and languages,” says Dish TV India chief revenue officer Sukhpreet Singh. The association, he argues, positions VZY as the television of choice for “entertainment-first consumers”.

    A JioStar spokesperson described Bigg Boss as “India’s most-watched and talked-about reality series” and welcomed VZY’s “smart TV proposition” as complementing the show’s immersive experience. The language suggests both parties see this as more than a typical sponsorship—it is a bet on convergence.

    Whether Indian consumers will embrace an all-in-one television remains uncertain. The market is crowded with smart TV brands, streaming devices and DTH providers, each vying for living-room dominance. Dish TV is wagering that eliminating complexity—and piggybacking on Bigg Boss’s massive audience—will give VZY an edge. The show’s millions of viewers will soon discover if the pitch holds up.

  • Dish TV bets on ThinkAnalytics to supercharge Watcho’s AI discovery

    Dish TV bets on ThinkAnalytics to supercharge Watcho’s AI discovery

    LONDON:  Dish TV India has tapped ThinkAnalytics to power personalised recommendations and search across its Watcho streaming platform, a super-aggregator that bundles more than two dozen OTT services alongside live television.

    The deal gives Watcho access to ThinkAnalytics’ ThinkMediaAI suite, covering metadata enrichment, real-time viewer profiling, dynamic user interfaces, rail positioning, editorial curation, A/B testing and business intelligence. The system promises to surface both global hits and niche regional dramas with equal ease, in 12 languages, for millions of paying subscribers.

    Dish TV chief technology officer V K Gupta said the partnership delivers “the precision and scale to delight every subscriber,” adding that Watcho’s editorial teams will gain faster decision-making and the ability to experiment rapidly. “Our teams can innovate at speed, maximise audience engagement and unlock new value in today’s dynamic OTT landscape,” he said.

    ThinkAnalytics co-founder & CTO Peter Docherty called Watcho “a pioneer in super-aggregating streaming services,” noting that two-thirds of India’s population are millennials or younger. “Dish TV recognises the need to engage these viewers. With ThinkMediaAI, it can monetise that opportunity while delivering a superior viewing experience,” he said.

    The agreement underscores Watcho’s shift from a simple content aggregator to a full-fledged entertainment platform with curated, immersive experiences. As the library expands with more international and regional titles, the AI engine is expected to ensure high-quality recommendations even for hyper-local interests.

    Dish TV’s wider footprint is formidable: more than 587 channels and services, including 89 HD feeds, four international channels, 19 value-added services and 21 leading OTT apps. Its distribution network stretches across 9,500 towns via 2,334 distributors and about 158,000 dealers, supported by 24/7 call centres in 14 cities handling queries in 12 languages.

    For ThinkAnalytics, whose technology already powers discovery for global heavyweights, the tie-up offers a showcase in one of the world’s fastest-growing streaming markets, where competition for attention is as fierce as the appetite for content.

  • Dish TV hits play button on creator-led OTT with Watcho Fliqs

    Dish TV hits play button on creator-led OTT with Watcho Fliqs

    MUMBAI: Dish TV India, the country’s first direct-to-home (DTH) trailblazer, is now gunning for a front-row seat in India’s creator economy. After kickstarting the conversation with Content India 2025 Summit earlier this year, the company has now pulled back the curtain on Watcho Fliqs —a content segment within its Watcho app that could give every professional creator their own OTT stage.

    Unveiled at Waves  2025, Fliqs promises to be more than just another tile on the crowded streaming screen. It’s Dish TV’s answer to a shifting digital appetite—where creators want control, consumers want choice, and no one wants to pay Rs 499 a month to find out they’ve seen it all.

    “With Fliqs, we are taking a big and bold leap towards redefining what an OTT service can be. This isn’t just another content launch—it’s a statement of intent,” said  Dish TV India CEO & executive director Manoj Dobhal.  “Fliqs represents a new generation of curated, exclusive digital storytelling that aligns with the evolving consumer demand for distinct, high-value content. While the industry has seen a proliferation of platforms, very few offer something truly differentiated. Fliqs fills that gap by bringing untold stories, original productions, and exclusive titles into a highly personalized, affordable ecosystem. 

    “It supports India’s growing community of independent storytellers by providing a premium platform to showcase their work, reach wider audiences, and unlock monetization opportunities—strengthening Dish TV’s commitment to digital-first creative entrepreneurship.”

    Fliqs serves up award-winning originals, regional marvels, cult international titles, and short-format snacks—all in a tightly curated, multi-lingual menu. With rates starting from as low as Rs 9 per title and a buffet of free content to boot, the platform is wooing value hunters and taste seekers alike.

    But it’s not just the catalogue doing the heavy lifting. A sleek UI, AI-powered recommendation engine, and multi-screen features offer users a hyper-personalised ride through a universe of fresh entertainment.

    Watcho CTO & business head V.K. Gupta added: “Fliqs  is our solution to evolving consumer demands for uniqueness, exclusivity, and control over their entertainment. It’s not just an add-on, but a transformational layer within Watcho, offering a smarter, more relevant experience. With Fliqs,  Watcho strengthens its position in the OTT market, marking the start of a larger content evolution.” 

    Going forward, Watcho’s Fliqs  will continue to scale up with exclusive dubbed English content, regional blockbusters, and classic gems you won’t find on rival platforms. The real twist? It puts India’s storytellers in the director’s seat—creatively and commercially.

    As the digital content ecosystem matures, Dish TV seems determined to rewrite the playbook—from content carrier to creator catalyst.

  • Content India summit sets stage for global romp

    Content India summit sets stage for global romp

    MUMBAI: India’s entertainment moguls have their sights set on world domination—and they’re not being coy about it. The inaugural Content India Summit 2025 wrapped up two days ago with grand ambitions and plenty of showbiz swagger, positioning itself as the launching pad for Indian content’s international conquest.

    The summit, a partnership between DTH platform Dish TV India and C21 Media, brought together industry heavyweights to tackle the thorny question of how to make Indian entertainment as globally irresistible as its cuisine. Conversations probed everything from audience consumption patterns (binge-watching included) to the commercial scalability of Bollywood’s finest exports.

    Dish TV’s chief executive Manoj Dobhal didn’t mince words about the company’s ambitions: ” Our vision with Content India is to build a dynamic content eco-system that connects each and every constituent of Content creation in India with global opportunities. The Content India Summit 2025 marks the beginning of a transformative journey—one that fosters long-term collaborations, drives industry innovation, and expands market potential. With Indian storytelling gaining global acclaim, this is the moment to amplify international partnerships and position India as a content powerhouse.”

    C21Media’s managing director David Jenkinson chimed in with his own dose of enthusiasm, trumpeting India’s “undeniable influence” on the global content market. Said he: “Content India Summit is a crucial step toward shaping the future of Indian entertainment in a globally connected landscape. This event has brought together the brightest minds in the industry to address key challenges and unlock new opportunities for collaboration. India’s influence on the global content market is undeniable, and this summit lays the foundation for meaningful partnerships that will drive the industry forward.As we look ahead to the full Content India conference in 2026, our mission remains clear—to create a platform where ideas, talent, and business come together to define the next chapter of entertainment. This is just the beginning of an exciting journey for India on the world stage.”

    The gathering wasn’t all champagne and canapés, though. Sessions delved into India’s creative advantages—its talent pool, technical prowess, and budget-friendly production costs—while also wrestling with the delicate balance of preserving cultural authenticity while making content palatable for international viewers.

    Simon Mirren of Case Closed offered perhaps the most sobering advice: “Understanding the local culture is key to success in the Indian market. Many creators try to make TV for the West, which is a mistake. The focus should be on telling great stories that resonate here.”

    For those eagerly awaiting the industry’s new playbook, a report titled The Future of the Indian Entertainment Business Debate is set to drop within four weeks, promising to reveal how Bollywood and beyond plan to seduce global audiences.

    With streaming platforms hungry for fresh content and international viewers increasingly open to subtitles, India’s entertainment industry appears ready for its close-up—and Content India seems determined to direct the scene.

The summit will set the stage for a larger Content India 2026 event, modelled on the success of C21Media’s Content London and Content Americas.

    Dish TV India, CEO & executive director, Manoj Dobhal highlighted the initiative’s significance, “The Indian entertainment industry is at a critical juncture, with its content resonating like never before across international audiences. Content India 2025 is our effort to empower Indian creators and bring global opportunities closer to home.

    Dish TV launches ‘Own Your Customer’ initiative

    Mumbai: Dish TV India, a leading DTH service provider, has launched its marquee and unique ‘Own Your Customer’ (OYC) as part of its partnership with Local Cable Operators (LCOs). This collaboration with Dish TV will deliver a superior TV viewing experience to customers in a simplified manner eliminating the need for extensive infrastructure such as optical fiber, transmitters, nodes, and amplifiers. This partnership will ensure robust connectivity while enhancing the overall reliability of the network.

    After COVID-19, while OTT platforms and DTH services continued to grow, traditional cable TV services suffered a minor setback. In such a situation, the ‘Own Your Customer’ (OYC) initiative launched by Dish TV will prove helpful to cable operators in strengthening their customer base. Cable operators were concerned about their declining customer base as they wanted to shift to DTH to avoid interruptions in their TV viewing experience. This Dish TV’s initiative will not only provide a perfect solution but will also help them retain their customer base without additional overhead costs.

    With this OYC initiative, LCOs and MSOs (Multisystem Operations) will enjoy complete control over their networks and act as distributors of Dish TV in their respective areas such as recharge and activation through their self-operated portal, eliminating dependence on external entities. Consumers will now experience better technology with the assistance of their cable operators. Moreover, LCOs will have the opportunity to install broadband, enabling customers to utilize new digital technologies like the Dish TV Android Box from the comfort of their homes, not only further strengthening the broadband connection provided by LCOs but also providing end-to-end solution to customers.

    Commenting on the initiative, Dish TV India Ltd CEO Manoj Dobhal, stated, “We are delighted to introduce the ‘Own Your Customer’ campaign, a first-of-its-kind and unique initiative in media distribution. It marks a major change in cable TV distribution. This initiative by Dish TV will not only empower LCOs and MSOs but will also enable them to expand their customer base and reduce operating costs, while Dish TV will gain access to new customers and reduce servicing overheads. This relationship ensures that both parties are committed to driving industry-wide change while providing unmatched value and services to customers.”

    Through OYC, Dish TV reaffirms its commitment to supporting the growth of LCO businesses. Its primary objective is to revitalize the cable TV industry with the combined strength of both DTH and cable networks. Dish TV is fostering the growth of LCOs and MSOs by enhancing their customer relationships and introducing a customer-centric approach to TV distribution.
