DDF Exclusive Star Sports 3 launching by replacing Channel V on 15th September 2018

[DreamFan]

I'm from kerala. I am not expecting a Malayalam sports channel.Satisfied with parallel arrangements through Asianet Movies, Espn feed etc. But if a Malayalam sports channel(star sports Malayalam) come I will happily welcome it. Thats all....

Forget SS1 Malayalam, but be ready to welcome Zee Malayalam :wink:

Ss1 Malayalam if not happen no problem, if happens hearty welcome..

The peoples like Dreamfan, EdwinTVM and Amit1079... Why you guys are targeting SS Tamil? Why you want the channel to be closed or replaced?. Are you watching the channel?

I never wished the channel to be closed or converted to something else. Only suggested to convert it to a common channel for the 4 south Indian languages.
Tamil commentary will not be impacted by that.

With separate floors, each with sports experts from that language.

Then anchors from different floors should have pakka timing as ad breaks are at the same time.

I too don't want a separate channel.
An audio feed on HD will be good enough.
I don't even root for a Kerala premier league (football or cricket) to be telecasted.
Just a regional language audio feed for some important cricket and football live matches, that's all.

Maynot be a big issue on pre-match and post-match shows of 1 hour duration.

What are the possible changes that can occur on September 15?

Star's 13th sports channel is going to launch. But not expecting any re-branding for the whole network.

Its more than that. We get the scorecard in Tamil, commentary in tamil, interview in tamil, programs are taken considering tamil in first place.... And it is the strategy from Star Sports to get more ad revenue from Tamilnadu. If the channel is audio feed based, they would telecast only english and hindi adds and will not get more add revenue from tamilnadu...

Yes.


So they don't shelved their plans. We can expect more regional sports channels on next ipl season. Now a days MIB is not aggressive in giving new channel licences so that everyone is delaying their channel launches.
