India is one of world’s largest producers of TV shows. With more than 400 terrestrial and local channels available, Indians often face the challenging question: What am I going to watch?
The good news is that we increasingly don’t have to worry about when to watch. Over the last few years, major Indian broadcasters such as
Sony Entertainment Television,
Colors,
ImagineTV,
Star India, and
VikatanTV have been bringing their shows to YouTube so that you can watch them whenever you want.
Now that our Indian TV partners offer more than 19,000 full episodes of 300 programs in six different languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Gujarati, and Punjabi), we wanted to offer our Indian viewers an updated Shows page at
youtube.com/shows to help you better follow shows you love and discover new favorites. For the rest of the world, you can still find the shows through
youtube.com/shows/other-languages.
You’ll find programs into genres like drama and comedy, as well as the latest and top watched episodes featured on the page. Missed the last episode of
Bade Acche Lagte Hai? It’ll be right there in the channel waiting for you. If you’re looking for a few good places to start, check out popular shows like
Balika Vadhu,
Ramayan,
CID,
Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev,
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah and
Thendral.
These 19,000+ episodes are just a start, so we hope we can keep delivering more and more content that viewers across India—and around the world—want to see.
