Why will they launch Nick kannada as kannada feed is available on Nick channel and if they launch Nick kannada then they should also launch in some other languages in which they have strong position

Other than Hindi viacom18 sees Kannada as major market because they launched 2nd GEC here. They launched 1st regional movie channel here. And also Nick Kannada is doing so good. It's in top10 list in Kannada ratings. Also having language feed will only help in expanding trp but not bringing specific regional ad revenue ( eg: Nick gets good ratings in Karnataka but no Nick channel in Kannada it's registered in Hindi. So ad makers who focus regional can't put ads on Nick. )

Viacom18 should launch their channels for Entertainment genre in every region at First like . After that they can think about other genres, like movies, music, kids etc. etc. Viacom 18 should follow the method of Zee.
