nexGTv, a subscription-led video entertainment app on Thursday made its big-screen debut with its launch on Fire TV Stick, a digital streaming device from Amazon, and is now available on Amazon India.
"Having captured a significant share of the Indian Over-The-Top (OTT) entertainment market, we wanted to consolidate on the leadership position that nexGTv has achieved in the sector. Expanding our content outreach to smart TVs and similar large-screen offerings was therefore the next logical step," said Abhesh Verma, COO - nexGTv.
"Partnering with Amazon Fire TV Stick as a featured app is an extremely promising entry point for nexGTv. We want to build on it by launching more big-screen apps in the near future and allow nexGTv users to stream our massive content catalogue on any digital device of their choice, conveniently and seamlessly," added Verma.
nexGTv's entire entertainment library, comprising over 100 live regional and national TV channels and around 500 movies will be initially available for free on Fire TV Stick as a part of the launch offer. This includes original nexGTv programming like 'It's My City', the web series featuring global icon Priyanka Chopra as herself, as well as blockbuster movies, TV shows, and international web-based content.
Existing users can link their nexGTv accounts with the Amazon Fire app, and can also stream their preferred entertainment content on other Amazon devices such as Kindle, Fire TV and Fire Phone.
