Zee Released New RIO w.e.f. 01 April 2025

[Ethan 2023]

Star Movies has a permanent partnership with Marvel, Disney, Pixar, 20th Century Fox & now soon they will air movies of HBO & Peacock so they deserve this price while on the other hand Zee has no such long term partnerships

And its better if Zee fans don't talk about bcoz atleast 2-3 times a week same movie is running simultaneously across Zee's Hindi Movie channels which is much more irritating than Star's repetition bcoz not everyone watches TV everyday so airing movies on different days can be justified upto some extent but airing the same movie simultaneously is never justified bcoz as a viewer its irritating to see the same movies running across different channels

Recently, Attack was playing simultaneously on Zee Cinema HD and &pictures HD/SD at a 10 PM Slot, how can they justify both their HD flagship channels airing the same movie

And since you are talking about cost, Star Gold Thrills is the most cost effective channel for Hindi Hollywood Viewers At ₹2.36 while &flix SD charges ₹17.7 for the same thing

Also, &pictures HD/SD is the most overpriced Hindi Movie channel with most of the dubbed movies being aired while Critically acclaimed movies airing only on &xplor HD since it was added on Tata Play, &xplor HD is the best HD cost effective channel with the best library at just ₹4.72 while &pictures HD is charging 4 times of it with a much weaker library

This appears to be the dummy account of Dino , Indeed star has long term partnerships but still the content is repetitive, most of the time only avenger movies are being telecasted , else Titanic (7 times in week), star gold thrills is thrash merely having library of handful 50 movies, utv action was way better until star acquired it. Don't even deserve a pricing of Rs. 2/-

I am glad that you didn't justify star movies select.

Don't talk about repetitiveness of Zee Hindi movie channels, since there merger with viacom, despite having a huge library star hindi movie channels are on repetitive mode, phir Hera pheri, main hoon Na, Chennai express.... getting aired 6 times a week,

This appears to be the dummy account of Dino

That's enough internet for the day, which dummy account will have 5k+ msgs in 5+ yrs?

FYI, I even criticized Star Gold HD few days back for not having Dolby Digital Plus Audio since 2021 which even Zee HD Channels don't have since 2019

Actually, you are the real Dino Bro But For Zee

Don't talk about repetitiveness of Zee Hindi movie channels, since there merger with viacom, despite having a huge library star hindi movie channels are on repetitive mode, phir Hera pheri, main hoon Na, Chennai express.... getting aired 6 times a week,

To Be Precise, here are the total airings of the movies which according to u & Jaffer Bhai were repeated too much In February:
Phir Hera Pheri - 3 Times
Main Hoon Na - 4 Times
Chennai Express - 4 Times
K3G - 3 Times
Tridev - 4 Times
HNY - 3 Times
Swarg - 2 Times
Vishwatma - 2 Times

Could have missed 2-3 airings at the most but still it would be 6 times a week month which is not called repeating

Now, Justify this these repetitions by Zee

I never justify the repetitiveness of any network , zee ,star, sony all are repetitive ,
After the merger jiostar has mammoth library,infact 70 percent bollywood movies are with them still they concentrate on some 1 dozon of movies, after having such a huge library no movie should be repeated in a span of 30 days .
In this case you are defending star channels.

Though zee doesn't have long term contracts the content on their English movie channels is diversified, still I am unhappy with & Flix from last 6-12 months, they are not having multilingual premiers but to cover up that they have at least decreased the channel price w.e.f. 14 March, while & Prive HD will be available at Rs. 3/- only.
IMO Times network is a clear winner in English language

Mota bhai we are zee fans from 90s when zee tv zee cinema launched repeating movies became normal for broadcasters now. But compare to zee jiostar has vast bollywood library and movie channels. Point is movies are airing repeatedly from star to Colors and colors to star. Looks like competition between star channels and Colors cineplex bollywood.
