Even I Want Such A Pack By Sony In Which Sony Sab SD Is Also Included With HD Channels Because The Main And Only Reason To Buy Sony Sab SD Is To Watch Old Episodes Of TMKOC. So Firstly I Had Bought Sony Sab SD In À la carte For ₹22 But Then I Bought Sony Happy India A For ₹36 So That I Can Get Set SD And Sony Max SD Also In A Low Price Though I Don't Watch Them Much

I want HD channels for sports and KBC. SD for TMKOC re-runs. Buying a specific SD and HD bouquet doesn't make any sense to me.

Broadcasters can include both sd and hd feed of a channel in same bouquet if content aired is different on both. Upto sony to make such changes. Viacom18 already has implemented this

Nick SD/HD, CNBC TV18/Prime SD/HD are part of same HD Bouquet as content aired is diff and TRAI allows this in NTO. Even Times Network has Times Now SD and HD in same bouquet, same goes for Cartoon Network

Looks like we will see Sony focusing more on bollywood films now. Pandemic phase and OTT rise have made broadcasters realise what i have been stating for long that bring back old touch of film making in bollywood and above all air more of older bollywood films which have mass appeal. OTT has helped a lot in scaling up recall value of older films as well as introduce them to new age younger audience , already star / disney acquiring more of older bollywood films as these have repeat value and connect with larger base. Repetition of select newer films led to audience tuning into more of dubbed cinema but chs can add older bollywood films to schedule and bring balance in ratio. Badhaai Ho , Pati Patni Aur Woh, Kabir Singh, De De Pyar De type of films will work in multiplex but not on tv thus acquiring at high cost may b losing bet. Read this article, quite happy that Mr. Vyas made a statement about need for bollywood to make films for single screen audiences
Movie channels look at direct-to-TV films, big premieres to fight OTT

Is AXN making a comeback? Do u guys miss this channel? Saw a promo ad for "pay thru digital mode for tv subscription " on Sony BBC Earth and this was a new ad released i believe after 25th anniversary celebrations of SPNI.... It had AXN in ch list while other shutdown chs were missing. Maybe Sony will relaunch it or other company (one which took rights for AXN Asia operations) will bring it back and sony will distribute it. List hope for best. Social Media profiles also unavailable now for AXN India though Rox, Mix still have inactive accounts present

The website and all social media accounts of AXN India simply disappeared forever. This should not have been done.

Nice to see Neeraj Vyas (the shooting target of many Bollywood fans for his heavily pro-South agenda) making a comment on Hindi movies.

If yes, then this ad was launched by Sony pictures network somewhere around in May (even before AXN shutdown).
But surprisingly still even after AXN shut down they still haven't removed the AXN channel from that promo.
Anyways I badly want AXN Back in India and Animax too.

Bro, KC Global Media did launch AXN Asia replacing AXN India in Bangladesh , Maldives , Nepal & Pakistan . There is more demand for Animax Asia channel's return in India is high on KC Global Media pages compared to AXN .
