NJPW would be great on Star Sports channel pushing the Asian Sports in the content. But Star is too coward of a broadcaster to even think about going for something niche like Asian pro wrestling which is ironically celebrated in America and UK. I miss the old Star Sports pre it's rebrand we got many niche sports like K1.
 
Do you guys think Yoshihide Suga less interest for India has something to do with NHK World's removal from all the dth? I mean they are one of the biggest economy in the world and our broadcast industry is one of the cheapest. Why would Japan's public broadcaster be not be able to afford to pay carriage fee of their channel in our affordable industry?

Bro may be its due to less audience for Japanese content focused channels. Even Animax was pulled out of DTH business due to carriage issue in 2012 or in 2013 , only for short time it came back in 2016 only in Tata sky . even in all those years it was still available in cable network. Even though Animax being charged Rs 10 or Rs 5 Animax being a paid channel -Sony India could not pay carriage fees . (pricing - remember seeing price of Animax in Kids pack & in a la carte price of Approx. Rs 10 or Rs 5.

Carriage issue fees might be the reason they decided to pull out of all DTH & yet still remain in Cable network. most of the people who are subcribed to dth they could watch NHK World channel can watch on NHK World APP for free with video on demand along with option of lve channel & other features of multi audio . that could be a reason , also the fanbase is niche.
