Star India - Viacom18 Merger Completed

[Zubyan]

This is a MAJOR development! Never in the past 16 years has the logo of the main Colors channel in Hindi appeared without the Viacom18 logo below it. This is a visible sign that the Viacom18 brand is dead. Now we only need to wait for the JioStar logo and brand identity to be unveiled, and for the Star and Colors channels to inform viewers that they have become one. @dino29, take note!

I think logo will be announced in Christmas or new year

Good catch. A new major change on TV in addition to the usual changes we see like the new disclaimer and content sharing.
IMO, Colors logo area needs a space adjustment. With the removal of Viacom18 logo, there's a big gap between the logo and current program text. The current program text should be moved up a bit.
