Sony Pictures Network India's channels back on Tata Sky
Sony Pictures Networks India’s channels are back on Tata Sky after two months
Early October, Direct to Home (DTH) operator Tata Sky removed SPNI's 22 channels along with TV Today Network’s channels which were officially distributed by SPNI.
SPNI spokesperson confirmed the news and said, “Yes, the Sony Pictures Networks channels are back on Tata SKy”
The operator had faced a lot of backlash by its subscribers on social media after removing the broadcaster's channels. Tata Sky requested its subscribers to bear with them and assured that they are committed to working in the interest of its subscribers.
“Commercial negotiations with the broadcasters broke down as what they were seeking would have forced us to hike our prices. Hence we have had to drop a few channels while keeping the popular ones on. We request our subscribers to bear with us, as we are doing this in their best interest,” said Harit Nagpal, CEO & MD of Tata Sky said in October.
