In a significant milestone, JioHotstar has surpassed 100 million subscribers, cementing its position as India's most beloved streaming platform. This remarkable achievement reflects the company's dedication to catering to the country's diverse audience. JioHotstar has revolutionised streaming in India, evolving from a premium service for a few to an essential part of daily life for millions. The platform has set new standards in content accessibility with its unique free-viewing model, competitive pricing strategy, and robust telecom partnerships ensuring widespread availability.
Kiran Mani, CEO – Digital, JioStar, commented on the achievement, saying, “We have always believed that world-class entertainment should be accessible to all, and crossing 100 million subscribers is a testament to that vision. This milestone not only underscores India’s limitless potential but also strengthens our commitment to pioneering category-first experiences at an unprecedented scale. As we continue to innovate and expand, our focus remains on shaping the future of streaming, driving accessibility, and unlocking infinite possibilities for a billion screens.”
At the core of JioHotstar's success lies its vast and diverse content library, featuring an extensive range of TV shows, the largest selection of Hollywood content on any platform globally, and an array of digital specials across multiple languages. With a year-round slate of unscripted and reality shows, along with the newly launched Sparks showcasing India’s top creators, JioHotstar has crafted the most expansive content universe in India's digital space.
JioHotstar has also redefined sports streaming in India, offering fans immersive and interactive experiences. As the home of premier events such as ICC tournaments, IPL, and WPL, JioHotstar has pioneered grassroots cricket with the Indian Street Premier League and brought international sports like the Premier League and Wimbledon to its viewers. Additionally, the platform has been a strong advocate for domestic leagues such as Pro Kabaddi and ISL. Features like ultra-HD 4K streaming, AI-driven insights, real-time stats overlays, live chats, multi-angle views, and voice-assisted navigation have elevated how sports are experienced in India. These innovations were highlighted by the immense success of the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy 2025, the inclusive Women’s Premier League, and the TATA IPL 2025.
Moreover, JioHotstar has redefined live-streaming of real-time events, making them shared cultural experiences. This was evident in their live broadcast of Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres concert and the spiritually immersive Mahashivratri: The Divine Night, which provided viewers with a virtual experience of over 20 sacred Jyotirlinga aartis across India, blending cutting-edge technology with powerful emotional connections.
JioHotstar’s milestone of 100 million subscribers is not just a number—it's a reflection of India’s digital revolution, the power of storytelling, and the future of streaming.
