Under Kevin Vaz Star able to stay strong in Hindi as well as regional languages. His arrival will be beneficial to Viacom18 which is in the situation of poor performance in regional languages. Every body pulls out experts from Star and Star just promote their juniors to fill the gap and could able to move forward like earlier. When Uday Shankar left it was like beheading. But his successor K Madhavan able to lead the company stronger than earlier.
Anyway this is a major shifting and can make many changes in both companies.

Former Star India chief Uday Shankar, who has joined the Viacom18 board, is preparing the blueprint to grow the company, which has become a serious contender in the sports business with the acquisition of Indian Premier League (IPL) digital rights.

Vaz joins the long list of executives who have quit Star, with some of them joining Viacom18 following Shankar's entry into the company. In 2021, Star Sports ad sales head Anil Jayaraj joined Viacom18 as CEO of the sports business. Around the same time, Disney+ Hotstar ad sales head Gulshan Verma quit the company to join JioAds as CEO.
