Ending deal with yrf was a mutual decision because sony didn't find suitable buying yrf movies because they don't have a Bollywood audience base they made their channel a south heavy that's why they stopped getting trp for hindi films expect some films like 3 id*ots pk sultan tzh but they still have good relations because on ddlj 25th anniversary max was airing it and yrf promoted it on their handles and on the other hand star gold has a big Bollywood audience base and they found yrf movies profitableEarlier they had 3 movies of big banner YRF but they lost it to Star
If sony didn't made main max a south heavy so they wouldn't had to let go a long time banner like yrf
