Disney India

Guys, a doubt. If Reliance takes 60% of Disney India operations , how does that work? I mean do they now have a common platform (does jiocinema and hotstar get merged?) Does all the rights acquired by Disney India get transferred to Viacom?

Reliance will own 50% in Star India and Bodhi Tree Investments (James Murdoch/Uday Shankar). Together they will hold 60% in Star India and Disney will hold the other 40%. So as of now the assets in Star India such as Hotstar and IP library aren’t going to get merged with anything in Reliance or rebranded.

What is the basis of driving it into ground?
Have an offer from hotstar (Tech data platform) was trying to assess if it's going through the toll for getting hotstar tag

Purchased to drive into the ground. Look at what they did with Dunzo

Sadly Hotstar was fantastic with great concurrent streaming capabilities, which Jio will use, and then start playing ads every 10 mins. Fuck our future
