With STAGE, we are adding more entertainment choices for our audiences in Haryana and Rajasthan. With each new partner addition, our goal is to make Tata Play Binge a go-to choice for genre-based content discovery instead of browsing by various apps, thereby making the viewing experience worthwhile for our subscribers.”
Talking about this partnership, Vinay Singhal (Co-founder and CEO, STAGE), said, “Dialects in India are as diverse as they are vibrant, changing every 8 kilometers.
