This is 3rd or 4th time channel getting launch again .. they've no money .. when they get they launch n again they get loss shutdown the channel ..

Kalki TV is a venture from White Horse Pvt. Ltd. HD Kumaraswamy had once decided to move out of his TV business and sold Kasthuri TV to White Horse in 2014. They changed the overall look and feel of the channel by changing the logo and all other elements. Later the channel started getting negative reviews and angered Kumaraswamy; he bough the channel back and reinstated old logo and programming. Later Whit Horse launched (read re-launched) their channel 'Kalki TV' in 2015; they had lots of gimmicks stating they will launch 'Kalki TV HD' which will be first Kannada HD channel and all but they could never actually do. There were literally no advertising revenues I guess and the channel ran for about a year and disappeared. Now they are launching again; with strategy that I don't know. They have failed multiple times and this launch again might also not be successful considering the existing competition and popularity of current channels.

There is no speculation about Colors Super HD anywhere, it would only be a guess if it's included.
