Indian Tech Giant, Jio has recently ventured into partnership with another Tech Giant, Disney/Star India. As part of the deal, Jio Cinema App will be merging soon with Disney+Hotstar App. With this, Jio Cinema’s content is also to be shifted to Disney+Hotstar soon. It is also learnt that Hotstar will continue as the content driver due to the superior infrastructure and far more downloads it holds than Jio Cinema.
Disney+Hotstar already stands as one of the leading OTT Giants in India. It mostly streams films, TV Serials, Series and Sports. With the merger, Jio Cinema will be discontinued and Hotstar would act as the official streamer of both Jio and Hotstar’s contents. However, there is no confirmation regarding the rebranding of Disney+Hotstar. Many have been speculating that the newly formed App could be named as Jio Hotstar.
We have to wait and see how the two companies proceed on this. Earlier, Zee and Sony had also decided to merge their operations but no progress was made on this. So, we have to see how Jio and Disney would run their operations jointly now.
