Unpopular opinion: I don't think Star Kiran HD deserved a shutdown, despite the low ratings, unless the SD version also shuts down. Because it is very rare for a Star channel's HD feed to shutdown before the SD feed. I could have accepted the HD feed's shutdown if Star planned on acquiring Tarang and convert Star Kiran into a secondary enter channel, just like how Zee converted Zee Kalinga into a news channel, after acquiring Sarthak.
Either Star should buy Tarang and Tarang Music from OTV and rebrand Tarang to Star Tarang and Star Kiran to Tarang Movies, in order to rebuild their presence in Odia TV industry. Star previously done this by shutting down their Telugu GEC, Asianet Sitara and then a few years later, they acquired Maa TV. Or else they should try their best to make Star Kiran successful and then relaunch it's HD feed.

I actually don't know what is their actual plan for Star Kiran. Within few months of launching, it appears on Top 5 odia channels. But slowly slowly they shut down all original shows & started dubbed content. Are they expecting top position within few months? Channel was doing good performance on trp chart. But they kill the channel by their own hand.

They should take care Kiran right now & should start original contents, reality shows with every weekend WTP movies. I want to see Star Kiran as a no 1 odia channel as like other markets where Star in dominating position.
 
i cried seeing comedy central shutdown.
I still remember how comedy central topped charts in karnataka .

Watching TBBT , Friends , impractical jokers , MOM , 2 Broke girls were the era for me.
I just loved channels sense of humour, it always made fun of us.

It feels more like loosing a person than a channel.
Viacom18 youth team did really well by giving personality to Comedy Central.
The only wish is do same with Colors infinity.

Miss you comedy central you have always been my happy place😍🥹
