The ministry has also approved Viacom18’s name change application to rename the licence My Cam as Colors Gujarati Cinema. The broadcaster has already started testing the new channel.
Apart from Viacom18, the ministry has also approved Star India’s name change application to rename Star Utsav Movies as Star Gold Family. Star Utsav Movies is a free to air (FTA) Hindi movie channel.
My reason for waiting is not because its a Bengali channel, but its from Sun TV network. And one more thing is it is the first channel from sun network that focus outside of south India.
