I think this will be last airing on Star since Bhatt camp has cranked a deal with Sony so films like Criminal, Sangharsh, Kalyug, The Killer were aired on the early hours before shifting to Sony where they were premiered either on morning slots or as Max2 Uncut Specials. I am damn sure that Zakhm will also be aired as an Max2 Uncut SpecialBhatt Camp movie Zakhm scheduled to air in early hrs of thursday. Also noticing lot of cricket on Star So Select channels which was not the case earlier, infact domestic football show "Football United " also added in its programming. I am sensing that Star/Disney will shut down Star Sports 3 or First or both of them. In coming year ISL likely to shift on Sony if merger goes thru. Even PKL owners seem unhappy with price of tv rights offered to them by Star India, i read such reports few months back.
Some days ago guess a senior person handling Star Network spots business quit job, changes might be as a result of new team taking over and now onwards unnecessary high investment in sports might be controlled to put resources in other genres. Movie, Entertainment, Kids Genre expected to get more importance under Disney as even tend to be going in this direction since the tookever
They have the best audio after Star (Zee still has the poorest) but PQ wise Sony is the best and then Star comesI think Sony Max Have devloped their Audio Quality. Yesterday Also Khaandani Shafakhana was Sounding very Good and Today Tiger Zinda hain, I am sure they have worked on Dolby Audio,the way Zee did
Sony Max has always been the No. 1 pay movie channel. B4U Kadak overtook it only because of DDFD. Now Max is No. 1 overall again.(According to Barc Sony Max is still the most watched channel)
If only the merger goes through. In that case, we will see a segmentation similar to what Disney did.After Viacom-Sony merger Sony will have a separate South channel (like Zee Cinema SD) so that dubbed audience can enjoy while Cineplex HD will be converted into a pure Bollywood channel
It would not prove a major setback since it was cut for Tv viewing being an A rated film.Sony lost another Blockbuster movie The Dirty picture moved to Star
