It was a scene of movie Mysteries shaque, in which Janvi shah actually took of her top to show her cleavage to intimidate the Dhananjay chawhan.

History will repeat itself. Some people never learn their lesson. Years back "some broadcaster" took all English Entertainment of it's offering to a premium channel. If you didn't have LCD/LED TV, premium DTH or willing to shell out ridiculously high amount. No fresh content for you. Mind you this was almost a decade ago. Most people didn't have HD sets and competition was offering fresh episodes of popular shows on weekend. Meanwhile this broadcaster attitude was enjoy old shows or watch everything in a binge airing at weekends on our main channels. Yes, it made sense. If you had school or work on Saturday. Half episodes of your favourite shows are gone. Some shows never aired again after the binge airing. Than what happened? Viacom decided to enter the English GEC market with Colors Infinity. They started offering atleast 10-14 fresh shows every month. Some shows aired as same time as US as airing. Including shows from Netflix and Prime Video. Second broadcaster do so. Zee just had beaten them with House of Cards. Some aired on same day of it's US airing. They changed the English TV market forever. They had customer friendly intention. No premium subscription. No discrimination with SD TV viewers. They won the market and is still the dominant brand in English GEC genre. What happened to that premium market here? It was forced to become free. Main channel had to slowly offer fresh content. Bring US' premium cable shows of US to it's channel. But they never recovered. Slowly the popularity of the channels faded away. Viacom entered and took away it's audience.

History will repeat itself when Viacom18 enters sports channels genre. They will change the genre forever. No more popularity appeasement or discriminatory broadcasting ethics. Everybody will get fair share of what they want.

This history was started with Colors itself
When all saas-bahu serials were filled in gecs they came & introduced new concepts like Balika Vadhu & Shakti.
As u said same to happen again in sports but they entered little late.

Sony Wah logo size reduced. I think aspect ratio remains same as before.

That depends a lot on specific genre. English GEC and Hindi GECs are different games. Specifically talking about English GEC, They saw there's viewer potential and tried to utilize that with fresh content which had good probability of success.

Coming to Colors, yes That's a successful channel. Credit goes to reality shows as well.

But they couldn't reciprocate same for any of their regional GECs except Colors Kannada.

Sports broadcasting market is completely different, The acquisitions cost is higher and if you get good acquisitions (Which is most likely) the success probability increases.

That maverick attitude of Viacom18 is exactly what we saw with its parent company Reliance when it launched Jio. It revolutionised the telecom industry forever, bringing competitors (particularly Vodafone-Idea) to their knees and converting hundreds of millions of customers in a matter of months. It’s the reason India has the cheapest data in the world.

We expect a similar revolution in sports.

Read the first and last paragraph you wrote. Sports market is exactly in same scenario as English GEC market. There is demand for content but the existing broadcasters were unwilling to experiment. As soon as they entered. Rest of them stepped up their game. Without Viacom going for La Liga or Serie A. Others weren't expected to go for rest of the leagues. Soon all be bidding each other out for Ligue 1. Last year there was no tv broadcast of La Liga and Bundesliga. Now see where we are. We almost have all major leagues on TVs.
