“Working with channel partners globally to make this a widely covered WC”: Uday Shankar

Star India CEO Uday Shankar speaking on the networks broadcast plan said, “Star won't rest on its laurels and would ensure that fans feel closer to the game and their heroes, like never before. We will be working closely with 45 of our channel partners across the globe, making this one of the most widely covered ICC Cricket World Cup.”

Advertisers keep the scoreboard ticking

"On the back of different feeds, Star has created sponsorship and spot buying options for English, Hindi, languages and HD feed among others. For the first time in live cricket, advertisers can buy different cuts, air creatives in different languages to target their audiences more sharply. The response to this has been overwhelming, not just from the usual cricket advertisers, but also from a host of other brands," says an official spokesperson of the Uday Shankar-led television network.

On Home Turf

Star India CEO Uday Shankar explains, “Our genes had to become ‘Indian’ if we wanted to maintain leadership.”
