BSNL Ties Up With Hotstar To Provide Free Streaming

BSNL has tied up with video streaming service Hotstar Premium to provide World Cup cricket matches and more on a new broadband plan.

The plan is named Superstar 300 and costs Rs 749 a month. It comes with 50mbps speed for 300GB and 2mbps thereafter. This speed is valid for optical-fibre connections. For non-optical fibre connections, the speed is capped to 10mbps instead of 50mbps.

“Cricket matches today are being viewed more and more on mobiles, desktops and Smart TVs, and customers will seek high data speeds. Our partnership with Hotstar Premium has started at the right time when sports entertainment is at its peak. We want to bring the best offers to our customers with Superstar 300, to celebrate this mega sports season,” BSNL Chairman and Managing Director Anupam Shrivastava said.

“This partnership brings together the best of two worlds – BSNL’s high speed data network that will allow for seamless viewing of the best of live sports & entertainment, from Hotstar Premium,” Hotstar Chief Product Officer Varun Narang said.
