Currently, Kutty is the business head of the English movie and entertainment cluster while Singh is the business head of the English movie cluster.
Kutty will replace K Sriram, who had left the organisation in September. Singh will take over Kutty’s role.
The announcement about the changes was made by Star India CEO entertainment Amit Chopra in an internal email to employees.
