Sony PIX No. 1 English channel consistently for the last 5 weeks

2020 was a year of many firsts and Sony PIX took this opportunity to continue to innovate and grow backed by many programming and marketing initiatives. From premiering the biggest movies and introducing new programming IPs to being the first in the category to launch an AR filter game and an e-sports gaming event, Sony PIX has truly gone beyond the extraordinary this year and emerged as the most watched channel in India over the last quarter.

This remarkable growth is reflective of the staggering viewership rise in the English movie category by 24%, this year. Riding on its cluster of offerings, Sony PIX pushed the envelope further in audience engagement and scaled up to No #1 position in both SD and HD feed with 23% and 29% share in viewership, respectively, over the last 13 weeks average* along with being No #1 consistently for the last 5 weeks with 25% share. Not just the leader, Sony PIX is also the fastest growing English Movie channel in the category both in terms of viewership and reach in CY 2020 YTD, as compared to CY 2019. It has registered a 1.7x growth in viewership and 1.2x growth in reach for SD and a 2.4x growth in viewership & 1.5x growth in reach for HD. Sony PIX HD has also ensured the maximum reach in the English movie category, not just for the last 13 weeks but also for entire CY 2020 YTD.

Sony PIX’s constant endeavor to put the consumer first coupled with a strong distribution network, strategic content line-up and robust marketing innovations has resulted in Sony PIX’s unparalleled performance and the perfect victory run to end 2020 on a sweet note.
