Star Movies to premiere ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’ on 30 Nov

26 November 2014

 English movie channel Star Movies will premiere the ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’ on 30 November.

Airing at 9 pm, the movie will tell a story of self-discovery.
Star India English Cluster GM Kevin Vaz said, “The journeys and adventures we take in our lives professionally and personally are waiting for that first step which might look like a risk. At Star Movies no step, no move is too risky if it means that our viewers will be benefited by it. This weekend, let’s all take a cue from Walter Mitty to live life to the fullest and enjoy the wonderful journey called life.”
Directed by American actor, comedian and film-maker Ben Stiller, who also stars in this adaptation of James Thurber’s classic, the film sees Walter Mitty as a photo editor at ‘Life Magazine’ in New York who enjoys his work but is about to lose his job as the company shifts and downsizes.
He craves for more but lacks the courage and confidence to chase his dreams and come out of his shell. But when his job and that of his co-worker are threatened, he embarks on a transformational global journey that turns into an adventure more extraordinary than anything he could have ever imagined.

Murdoch's Star Group gets Rs 3,851 cr broadcast rights for Indian cricket

Star Group's India CEO Uday Shankar said, "I thank the BCCI for giving Star the broadcast rights. In collaboration with our partners ESPN, we will do a commendable job," he said.

Advertisers will have to pay more post Star-BCCI deal

STAR TV has paid Rs 3,851 crore for the deal, much above the amount paid by Nimbus. Evidently, STAR will have to bring in a 25 per cent hike in revenues from its latest acquisition in order to compensate for the difference.

STAR’s BCCI bid: well played

STAR’s taken a brave, considered bet. Indeed, Multiscreen Media (MSM), who bid marginally less than STAR did (Rs 3,700 crore vis-à-vis STAR’s Rs 3,851 crore) could be kicking themselves for having missed out by just Rs 150 crores – that’s about Rs 1.5 crore per match.
