FX HD is also expected to launch in the quarter ended June. Star’s English general entertainment channel portfolio comprising Star World Premiere HD, Star World, Star World HD, and FX is headed by Yogesh Manwani.

I think, Mr. Yogesh Manwani has forgotten that he had to launch FX HD by the end of June
Someone should let him remind about it on his facebook page. And please, share the link here also if anyone finds his facebook account, so that we can also wake him up and ask him why it isn't launched yet !!

I hope comedy Central will soon realise what people are expecting from the channels and do the right thing. I guess they're the only one from English entertainment section yet to launch High Definition channel.

Bro, I think, Comedy Central has already realised it and launched Comedy Central HD, but now, Star India should realise it and launch FX HD as of now FX is the only one channel from English entertainment section which is yet to be launched in High Definition.

Somehow I find star network far more aggressive than zee and MSM. They make an announcement and they stick by their word and win everyone's praise and heart.

Wow, what an aggressiveness ! They made an announcement of launching FX HD by the end of June and now they have completely forgotten their words. Now, no one knows that when it will be launched !!
