Three ETV channels enter USA
MUMBAI: Starting 2 May Monday, ETV channels ETV Bangla, Telugu and Gujarati will be available in the United States of America. The channels will be launched in the DirecTV platform.
The network had earlier slotted the US launch of ETV Telugu, ETV Telugu-II, ETV Kannada, ETV Gujarat and ETV Bangla in the last quarter of 2004. But the plans got delayed due to some last minute technical fine-tuning that was required.
“Now we are planning our US entry phase-wise. Our ETV-2, Kannada and Marathi channels will enter the USA in the second phase,” says ETV chief producer Manvi.
ETV has eleven regional channels in its network, including ETV Telugu, ETV Bangla,ETV Kannada, ETV Urdu, ETV Marathi and ETV Gujarati.
