JioStar Combines Disney+ Hotstar And JioCinema Full Details On The Launch
JioStar merges JioCinema and Disney+ Hotstar content, offering a mix of Indian and international shows. The new platform launches on November 14 with affordable subscription options.

On November 14, JioStar, the new platform formed from the merger between Disney Star India and Viacom18, will combine the content of JioCinema and Disney+ Hotstar. The platform will offer a mix of Indian and international content, with both platforms continuing under their sub-domains.
Impact on TV Channels
JioStar will streamline its TV offerings by merging regional channels with lower viewership, such as Star Marathi and Colors Marathi, to reduce duplication. Popular shows like Anupamaa will continue across channels.
International Content
JioStar will offer a broad range of international content, including HBO hits like Game of Thrones and The Bear, as well as Disney+ Hotstar shows like Grey’s Anatomy and Modern Family.
Original Shows
Disney+ Hotstar's original series, such as Criminal Justice and Aarya, will continue without disruption, with new seasons planned as scheduled.
Uday Shankar's Strategy
Uday Shankar, vice chairman of the merged entity, aims to reach a wider audience with AVOD (free, ad-supported) and TVOD (pay-per-view) models. The goal is to offer affordable content options through a tiered subscription system and premium rentals.
JioStar’s launch will transform the streaming landscape, providing a blend of affordable and premium content for diverse audiences.
