Disney Plus to launch in India on April 3

Disney Plus, a video streaming service from The Walt Disney Company, will launch in India on April 3, via Hotstar.

The streaming service was earlier slated to launch on March 29, along with the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, the suspension of the league made Star & Disney India to suspend Disney Plus launch as well.

“We were planning to launch along with IPL, but decided to hit a pause and have a relook at the strategy amid concerns on safety and fear on Coronavirus,” Uday Shankar, president, The Walt Disney Company APAC and chairman, Star & Disney India, told ET.
