Treeview partners with Arzooo to bolster its TV business in India
Mumbai: Treeview, Thailand’s LED TV and appliance manufacturer, will leverage retail tech platform Arzooo’s network of retailers to market its smart android full HD range of TV models in India, from 24 inch to 85 inch. Treeview is spread across geographies such as the Middle East and African countries, among others.
The company said India is currently witnessing a massive demand for world-class smart televisions as an increasing number of consumers are looking forward to transitioning from non-smart TVs to smart TVs with larger screen sizes. Treeview sees this as an opportunity to introduce its smart TVs. It aims to register sales of over half a million smart TVs in the next 12 months.
Arzooo’s network of offline retail channels in India will enable Treeview to scale up and achieve pan-India penetration in the shortest span of time.
“Our aim is to reach more households through Arzooo’s retail network. With enhanced specifications, superior quality, and affordable pricing, our range of smart TVs are best suited for Indian consumers,” said QThree Ventures director Jubin Peter.
Arzooo director of TV categories Sai Krishna said, “We are pleased to extend the Arzooo platform to Treeview to offer high-quality smart TVs to Indian consumers through our retail network. This partnership is another step forward in strengthening our portfolio of large appliances going forward. We are committed to getting more high-quality brands on the platform from across the world and making them accessible to offline retailers and Indian consumers.”
Arzooo Express, backed by a network of 35 hubs and warehouses across 22 states, will play a pivotal role in the distribution strategy. Recently, Arzooo has launched Quick Retail, which promises next-day delivery to metro cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Chennai. It will further the quest of retailers to provide consumers with smart android TVs at viable prices with speedy delivery.
MUMBAI: Lights, camera… connection because this time, the game isn’t just about winning, it’s about who’s with you. Sony Pictures Networks India is gearing up to launch a new reality game show, Tum Ho Naa, expanding its unscripted slate with a format that promises both emotion and engagement.
The show will premiere soon on Sony Entertainment Television and stream on Sony LIV, with Rajeev Khandelwal stepping in as host. Known for his measured screen presence and selective choices, Khandelwal’s return to television adds a layer of familiarity and credibility to the upcoming format.
While specific details of the gameplay remain under wraps, the positioning suggests a reality format that leans as much on emotional resonance as it does on competition, an increasingly popular blend in Indian television, where audiences are gravitating towards content that offers both stakes and storytelling.
Khandelwal, reflecting on his return, noted that his choices have often been guided by instinct rather than convention, describing Tum Ho Naa as a project that feels “close to the heart”. His association also signals Sony’s continued focus on anchoring new formats with recognisable faces who bring both relatability and depth.
The launch comes at a time when broadcasters are doubling down on original non-fiction formats to drive appointment viewing, even as digital platforms expand parallel reach. By placing the show across both linear television and OTT, Sony appears to be aiming for a dual-audience strategy capturing traditional viewers while engaging digital-first consumers.
As the countdown to premiere begins, Tum Ho Naa positions itself not just as another game show, but as a reminder that sometimes, the biggest prize on screen isn’t the jackpot, it’s the journey shared along the way.
