SPN launches FTA Hindi movie channel - Sony WAH

Augmenting its existing strength, Sony Pictures Networks India (SPN) has expanded the scope of its Hindi movie channels from 3 to 4. The latest entrant in this category is Sony WAH, a premium free-to-air (FTA) Hindi movie channel. Based on a deep understanding of audiences across different strata in the Hindi-speaking markets (HSM) landscape, Sony WAH seeks to cater to the unserved needs of rural and small town India.

Celebrating the best of Hindi Cinema, Sony WAH, with its positioning of ‘Filmon Ka Mela’, will bring alive the content and experience that audiences of FTA channels have never seen before. The channel will showcase a mix of Hindi movies as well as films from the southern parts of India dubbed in Hindi. There will be a lot of marquee titles as well ranging across present-day blockbusters to movies from the last three decades.

Commenting on the launch, Neeraj Vyas, Senior EVP, Sony MAX and Sony MAX2, said, “With the launch of Sony WAH, Sony Pictures Networks India (SPN) becomes the only network to cover a range of audiences across multiple geographies with its unique offering of four distinct and differently positioned Hindi movie channels. Sony WAH completes the circle with its focus on rural and FTA audiences offering them a spectrum of movies they would want to see and when they want to see; enabling both choice and selection for the viewer.”

With this launch, SPN’s Hindi movie channel cluster, comprising Sony MAX, Sony MAX2, Sony MAX HD and Sony WAH, will cover the entire viewer spectrum of HSM at 94 per cent unduplicated reach.

Sony WAH is currently available on DD Freedish and key MSOs like Incable, DEN, Fastway, GTPL and many other independent cable operators across key markets in HSM.
