Getting people away from TV With the new campaign, Hotstar says it is targeting the Tier-II and Tier-III cities which have been “fueling the growth of online video consumption in India.” It aims to get all those people on board who have lost access to paid channels after Telecom Regulatory Authority of India imposed new tariffs. While one set of the family may be hooked to these soaps, those within the same family who are interested in cricket may pay for the subscription. It is bad news for television channels too as it may lead to migration from traditional TV subscriptions to OTT. “The next wave of growth for OTT platforms will come from smaller cities as adoption picks up. In fact, non-metros today outstrip metros in terms of video consumption. Through this campaign, our endeavor is to engage with our audiences further in Hindi-speaking markets and take digital video consumption to new frontiers,” said Varun Narang, Chief Product Officer, Hotstar. Going all out Not just that, Hotstar is also planning to opt for door-to-door marketing in Tier-II and Tier-III cities using different mediums of marketing including billboard to advertise about their free library. The campaign comes a week after Netflix removed free first month trial for their consumers. It is now offering a new plan to select new subscribers in India with the first month at ₹5. The offer is only available as an introductory offer to select new subscribers and not for existing users or anyone who is signing up again for premium subscription. India is all set to witness a tough battle in the over-crowded OTT space this year. Hotstar, the leader of the OTT space, plans to break down its own record of 18.6 million concurrent viewers during the IPL season. It has also set aside ₹120 crore to make seven originals across languages. Whereas, Netflix and Amazon Prime Videos are upping their game by investing millions of dollars in originals. Zee5, on the other hand, is aiming to produce 80 originals this year.

Hotstar is the streaming version of Star TV which pioneered the culture of soap operas in India. But its OTT version has an eclectic mix of options right from soap operas to top American television shows. It may be fair to assume that a Game of Thrones is less likely to follow a soap like Kasauti Zindagi Ki. Then what explains the overlap put out by the <keyword id="8429818" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="India-watch-report-2019">India Watch Report 2019</keyword> from Hotstar? It is the fact that people end up sharing subscriptions in India. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/hotstar-india-watch-report-2019-shows-95-consumption-came-from-mobile-phones/articleshow/72456426.cms">Even after clocking over 500 downloads per minute this year</a>, Hotstar hasn't overcome this challenge. <div type="twitter" handle="hotstar_helps" handlename="Hotstar" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/849947070500818944/DC9GeNrq_normal.jpg" favoritecount="45" retweetcount="1" status="Shared your login details with family/friends &amp; now regretting that instead of you they are binge watching content… https://t.co/1VmUTahwUh" createdat="1559731321000" id="1136221631737544706"></div>

 Indian men love drama but…. 'Drama' was the most watched genre on Hotstar followed by romance, family, and reality ⁠— 45% of total entertainment consumption came from women. The other half were men. As per the report, 40% of the Indian viewers of family dramas on Hotstar are men above 35 years. And they watched “Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ the most. Whereas, 45% of the women above the age of 35 years watched drama. “Contrary to popular belief, men don’t dislike Hindi TV serials. Turns out, their interest for family and mythological shows is at par with women,” said the report. But once again, the report is silent about the problem of shared subscriptions that may skew its inference above. <div type="twitter" handle="ektaravikapoor" handlename="Ekta Kapoor" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/999257758904926209/AkFHu9IV_normal.jpg" favoritecount="445" retweetcount="37" status="There are many red weddings !!

Disney+ was earlier scheduled to launch on March 29. Disney also rolled out a beta app to test the streaming service for select users. But they delayed the launch after health authorities identified clusters of coronavirus in several parts of the country and cancelled the IPL cricket matches. As people spend more time in seclusion, the usage of OTT and others has been going up and is expected to grow further. “We hope the power of Disney’s storytelling, delivered through Hotstar’s technology, will help our viewers find moments of comfort, happiness and inspiration during these difficult times,” Shakar added.
