"We are aiming for an India launch in the year 2019 in partnership with Times Bridge (the international investments and partnerships division of The Times Group)," Cakarel said at the ongoing 20th Jio MAMI Film Festival with Star.

"The films will have sub-titles for each of the regional languages that we support. Moreover, we will introduce channels in India - something we haven't done in any other country," he added.
