UTV Mobile Video

All mobile video content currently is built on top of television or movies content. The nature of these mediums, controls the content that is created for it (e.g.: TV = Family viewing = Saas Bahu). The average Indian movie is 3 hours in duration, which cannot be adequately minimized for mobile in length, without making it dramatically incorrect. Due to the limitations of these mediums, all aggregated content for mobile is handicapped by the limitations of its ancestral media. Moreover, existing content is over-syndicated, causing it to be ubiquitous, and hence diminished in its value to the end consumer. UTV's Mobile Video is based on the premise that content for mobile has to be created by listening to mobile users and then giving them what they want. We listen by scanning the web and mobile for what people are searching for. Be it Bikini Models, Shakira or Priyanka Chopra, and then, work with the TALENT directly to create content that will appeal to the medium and it's sensibilities.

UTV Interactive is all set to captivate the youth as well as the masses by providing entertainment on their private screens. UTV is tapping into it's entire eco-system of creative content creators and existing celebrity relationships, it's using the same ecosystem of teams and individuals who have re-defined films and television, from Rang De Basanti to Sheila ki Jawani, from Big Switch to Emotional Atyachaar, and is bringing its entire creative might to made for mobile.
