Breaking Reliance and Disney merger approved by CCI

Seems Jio cinema may be shut down post merger and hotstar could stay as jio cinema annual subscription removed from app from the time of merger approvals and annual subscription stay on Hotstar..Also Hotstar heavily advertised by star for different events like BG series in Australia ..Purely my opinion

I also guess same they might turn JioCinema as free application for Jio user and might run their TV shows and budget friendly series on JioCinema just like Amazon MX Player.

And what about marathi channel?

I think Marathi channels from both networks i.e Star Pravah, Pravah Picture & Colors Marathi will remain operational. Star Pravah head may be lead to Colors Marathi after merger and may try to enhance the quality of programming of Colors Marathi. I am saying it because Recently colors marathi posted promos of 4 upcoming serials and shows. Also Colors Marathi having good non fiction shows like Sur Nava Dhyas Nava and BBM whereas Star Pravah is master in fiction. I think after merger Star Pravah and Colors Marathi will serve different Types of programmes. Not only Colors Marathi but Colors Kannada may exist after merger. Because both channels are recently revamped with new graphics package, if they want to shutdown those then why they will waste the money for it. So I assume it.
