Price Point 

The price offers are more attractive than the content like it’s akin to subscribing to a  regional  TV channel pack as opposed to the full range along with all the categories, and just offering all of the languages like Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Hotstar.

In fact, April, May, and June were bigger than COVID months for us.” Mehta also shows that it’s just ‘getting started’.

Zee5 also makes triplet its investment into regional content, now Netflix is also looking deeper for catching the flavor of the series with their languages.
