INDIA WATCH
REPOR T
2019
Video entertainment ecosystems have rarely evolved faster
than what we are witnessing in India. With affordable
smartphones and abundant access to data, the small screen is
becoming the preferred medium of entertainment for new
consumers. Consumers across different demographics and
geographies are more accessible than ever before and the
propositions to these consumers are being reimagined
through an enterprising mix of content and technology. The
future is exciting – for consumers, for marketers, and for
content platforms.
Until a few years ago, online entertainment was restricted to
the urban affluent. However, we now see newer horizons of
customer reach, with non-metro towns driving online
consumption. Digital viewership among women has also
grown by leaps and bounds. Moreover, Hotstar’s pan-India
consumer base reveals how each person has unique and
individual choices – men are watching drama and movies from
the South are being consumed in the North. While the
enchantment of cricket remains unabated, customers are
increasingly getting attracted to kabaddi and football. The
new Indian consumer is breaking old stereotypes and defying
conventional wisdom.
The realm of consumer experience has stretched beyond
providing mobility and convenience. Today’s consumers want
a voice of their own and are not satisfied with passive
experiences. They want to interact with the screen, express
their opinions, and live the moment with friends and family.
Online viewing is becoming both an immersive and a social
experience.
It falls upon us to tirelessly deepen our understanding of the
customer and promptly respond to their changing needs,
since we are trying to earn the most precious currency – their
time. Sharp customer insights and deeper customer
engagement, when powered by enhanced technological
capabilities, will open new possibilities for marketers, who
can now run targeted marketing campaigns at scale during
live events.
We hope you find our insights and findings in this edition of
The India Watch Report useful. We see an unprecedented
opportunity to envision the industry’s future – let us shape it
together.

India watch report_2019 - Hotstar

  • 2. Video entertainment ecosystems have rarely evolved faster than what we are witnessing in India. With affordable smartphones and abundant access to data, the small screen is becoming the preferred medium of entertainment for new consumers. Consumers across different demographics and geographies are more accessible than ever before and the propositions to these consumers are being reimagined through an enterprising mix of content and technology. The future is exciting – for consumers, for marketers, and for content platforms. Until a few years ago, online entertainment was restricted to the urban affluent. However, we now see newer horizons of customer reach, with non-metro towns driving online consumption. Digital viewership among women has also grown by leaps and bounds. Moreover, Hotstar’s pan-India consumer base reveals how each person has unique and individual choices – men are watching drama and movies from the South are being consumed in the North. While the enchantment of cricket remains unabated, customers are increasingly getting attracted to kabaddi and football. The new Indian consumer is breaking old stereotypes and defying conventional wisdom. The realm of consumer experience has stretched beyond providing mobility and convenience. Today’s consumers want a voice of their own and are not satisfied with passive experiences. They want to interact with the screen, express their opinions, and live the moment with friends and family. Online viewing is becoming both an immersive and a social experience. It falls upon us to tirelessly deepen our understanding of the customer and promptly respond to their changing needs, since we are trying to earn the most precious currency – their time. Sharp customer insights and deeper customer engagement, when powered by enhanced technological capabilities, will open new possibilities for marketers, who can now run targeted marketing campaigns at scale during live events.
