Star and sky are 2 different companies having no direct links. Only link is their parent organisation is 21st century Fox. So any dicision on star will not affect sky.

Also sky is major dth operator in Europe which is making profits

Star is Australian company?? According to article its in initial stage,no final decision taken,may b 50-50

Satyaanaash. (End of Good Time)
Disney is not at all stable in INDIA. They will ruin STAR (Satellite Television for Asia Region).
This will also leads to merging of Star Sports and Dsport.
Soon we can see Dsport 1,2,1Hindi,1Tamil Select.
Better close down the business rather than selling
