Since Colors Kannada Cinema will be launched soon, there are high chances that Zee and Star will follow this trend. The pressure on Zee would be enormous because they are yet to launch their HD channel.
Expected additions to the bouquet of Kannada Channels by 2019-2020:
Confirmed / Potential:
Colors Kannada Cinema
Zee Kannada HD
Star Sports 1 Kannada
Sony Kannada
Udaya Movies HD
Udaya Music HD
Udaya Life (rebranded from Udaya News)
Public Comedy
Probable:
Colors Super HD
Colors Kannada Cinema HD
Zee Kannada Cinema
Zee Kannada Cinema HD
Star Suvarna Movies
Star Suvarna Movies HD
Star Suvarna Plus HD
Udaya Comedy HD
Bro it would be Star, not Satar. Please edit.
Btw, according to few kannada members, this channel is a disaster. So, don't think Star will launch it's HD version. :no:
Star is actually ill-treating Suvarna Plus. Only if they rethink the strategy and overhaul the channel, then we might get to see the HD channel. It would be best for them if they convert the channel to 100% movie channel and rebrand it as Suvarna Movies.
I observed that Colors Kannada cinema showing content in 16:9 ratio...Hope that even colors Kannada and super follows the same path.
And probably the logo position of Colors Kannada is going to change this sat/sunday as Anubandha awards will be telecasted this weekend....Hope that even this change (16:9) will also happen on the same day!
