Taking IPL to India: Regionalization fuels growth – HSM grew 32% and South grew 19% versus last year. This growth can be attributed to the regionalization efforts, as the tournament is being broadcast in 8 languages – English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali including Marathi and Malayalam on Sundays. Star has expanded the appeal for the tournament further inviting kids and family with a curated feed called Super Funday, telecast every Sunday on Star Gold. This contributed a growth of 41% in viewership amongst kids versus last year.
