“In India today, approximately 70+ OTT services cater to 450mn+ consumers with just ~90mn paid subscription. The penetration at a subscriber level drops further as each consumer needs to subscribe to
multiple OTT services. The biggest bottlenecks to the growth of OTT subscription are accessibility, availability and affordability.

Content from across 17 OTT providers + Gaming is available today to all subscribers, accessible through a unified interface at a single subscription package starting at INR59 a month. Tata Play Binge makes entertainment easy for consumers, while increasing the subscription footprint for our OTT partners.” Explained Harit Nagpal, MD & CEO, Tata Play. He further added, “India is a value conscious market and value is a derivative of both time and money. Just as Tata Play DTH has connected television viewers across the country to channels from multiple broadcasters, so will Tata Play Binge aggregate content from across OTTs to digital viewers across the country.”
Tata Play Binge presents a freemium model, wherein anyone can install the Binge app and view and browse free content across partner OTT apps; and can also watch premium content behind paywalls by choosing subscription plans starting from ₹59 per month. A single subscription will allow simultaneous viewing on 2+ devices. To create personalized experiences for consumers that reduce time spent navigating multiple platforms, options such as ‘Universal Search’, ‘Language Preference’ and ‘Create Your Own Binge List’, have been made the prominent features of the app.

Madhavan and Priyamani, who have played relatable, everyday characters to bring out the essence of Tata Play Binge to the larger audiences through the campaign. Covering multiple touchpoints, Tata Play Binge’s marketing campaign aims to reach out to potential customers across the country this festive season.
R Madhavan added, “The entertainment world is expanding, and so is our viewers' taste and preference in content. However, finding these content and keeping up with so many OTT platforms can be very difficult, but Tata Play Binge, as an aggregator, has made this seamless and hassle-free. Providing access to all platforms under one roof is just amazing! and Tata Play is the harbinger of this revolution, which I am excited to be a part of.”
