Did you ever watched Star Movies Select HD? They committeed to offer a new movie every night. Forget about 365 days, 365 stories. They are airing same Marvel garbage. Star Movies airs. Why have two channels than? Also old movies like The Fault in Our Stars, Paper Towns, The Grand Budapest Hotel etc. has permanently left TV screens years ago.
Yes, when the channel launched it intended to air meaningful, contemporary hollywood movies but after about 2 orc3 years they changed strategy and started airing mostly mainstream cinema barring few movies from alternate cinema.... Could be that dismal ratings prompted this move
Right now too they r airing certain good movies and even airing mainstream movies from various banners which find less space on Star Movies but still as i have said proper content strategy most likely will be implemented after Star Movies Select SD feed is available across all Major DTH, Cable, HITS, IPTV platforms.
A new retro bollywood movie channel might also soon be launched by Disney-Star and maybe even an infotainment channel catering to science, investigation, exploration, biography, historical shows
