ShemarooMe partners with OTTplay to make content easily available to users
Mumbai: The OTT app by Shemaroo, ShemarooMe has partnered with OTTplay, to make ShemarooMe’s content easily available to the existing and potential users by opening up an entirely new way to access entertainment.
ShemarooMe has a wide selection of curated multiregional and multilingual content to suit every emotion. Be it Bollywood, regional, devotional, comedy, or kids entertainment, ShemarooMe has something for the entire family across age groups. After helping more than five million Indians navigate the chaotic landscape of OTT content with AI-based personalised recommendations, OTTplay is now making its foray into OTT content streaming with the launch of OTTplay premium- bundled subscription packs!
Speaking of this partnership, Shemaroo digital business and ShemarooMe COO Zubin Dubash said, “With a plethora of options on OTT apps, selecting the right film or web series to watch can be time-consuming and intimidating. This partnership with OTTplay will shorten the search time to select the right content for the consumers as per their preferences. It will be beneficial for both partners as well as the existing and potential consumers.”
Adding to it, OTTplay co-founder Avinash Mudaliar commented, “Our aim is to enable consumers to spend time watching their favorite shows, not searching for them; globally 60 percent of OTT consumers find the process of navigating different OTT apps “frustrating”, and that is the precise problem we had set out to solve with OTTplay. In the last year, we were successful in answering: What to watch? and Where to watch? by building an AI-powered personalised recommendation engine and a platform where users can stay updated on the latest news and reviews. Having earned the trust of millions of OTT fans in India and having positioned OTTplay as the #1 recommendation platform, it was only logical to transition into the aggregator space and democratize the experience of consuming streaming content. A common problem that many face today relates to acquiring subscriptions to multiple OTT platforms and having to navigate between them. With OTTplay premium subscriptions, we want to provide a seamless experience where users can consume all the content, they want to watch in one place. We are excited to partner with ShemarooMe and offer its vast content offering to our existing and potential users.”

EPIC Company unifies all brands under single EPIC identity
IN10 Media rebrand aligns TV, digital and films into one ecosystem
MUMBAI: The EPIC Company, formerly known as IN10 Media Network, has announced a sweeping brand consolidation, bringing its television channels, digital platforms and content IPs under a single identity, EPIC.
The move is aimed at simplifying the company’s structure while creating a more connected content ecosystem spanning television, digital and films. By aligning multiple verticals under one umbrella, the company is looking to present a sharper, more cohesive face to both audiences and partners.
As part of the transition, several channels have been rebranded to align with the EPIC identity. EPIC will now operate as EPIC TV, while Nazara becomes EPIC Bharat, Filamchi is now EPIC Bhojpuri, Gubbare transitions to EPIC Kids, and ShowBox is reintroduced as EPIC Music. Ishara will continue under the identity EPIC Parivaar, maintaining its core positioning.
The company has also refreshed EPICON, its streaming platform, to reflect a more unified and modern brand experience. The overhaul is designed to improve content discovery and create a seamless experience across platforms.
This consolidation follows the recent launch of EPIC Studio, a unified production arm that brings together Juggernaut Productions and MovieVerse Studio, as the company expands its footprint across films, OTT and television.
The EPIC Company managing director Aditya Pittie said, “As our scale has grown, it has become important to simplify how we operate and how we present ourselves to the ecosystem. This consolidation gives us a clearer, more future-ready structure to partner, invest, and build at scale, while ensuring that for viewers, the experience is more seamless and intuitive.”
With the rebrand, The EPIC Company is positioning itself as a platform-agnostic content network, focused on scale, simplicity and integrated storytelling. By bringing everything under one banner, it is aiming to make its content universe easier to navigate and harder to ignore.
