Tata Play Binge’s ‘Shots’ scales up short-form play with Pocket Films partnership
Share Share ShareShare

Mumbai: Tata Play Binge is expanding its micro-drama offering with the addition of Pocket Films to its ‘Shots’ platform, further strengthening its position in the fast-growing short-form content space. Known for its focus on snackable storytelling, Shots continues to evolve as a dedicated destination for quick-consumption, high-quality content tailored for digital-first audiences.

Pocket Films brings a diverse catalogue of emotionally engaging and culturally rooted stories, including micro-dramas such as Chaturanga, Vidushi, Maasa, Silent Cycle, and Pilibhit, along with a robust library of short films like Lock-up, Dubki, Paath, The Disguise, Exchange Offer, Bena, and Special Day. With this addition, Shots now offers over 210+ micro-dramas and 220 hours of content across genres such as action, drama, and thriller in Hindi and regional languages.

The platform, which already features partners like Bullet and STAGE, continues to scale its content depth and genre diversity. The entire offering remains ad-supported and is available at no additional cost within the Tata Play Binge app, making it easily accessible to a wide user base.

Designed for seamless mobile viewing, Shots features a vertical, scroll-friendly interface with auto-next playback and intuitive discovery tools. Users can access the content via dedicated home-page rails or a standalone section within the app, eliminating the need for multiple subscriptions or platform switching.

This collaboration aligns perfectly with our vision of making meaningful, culturally relevant stories more accessible, while tapping into the growing demand for quick, high-quality content experiences.”

Shots sits alongside a wide range of OTT platforms available on Tata Play Binge, offering users a unified interface and subscription model across multiple streaming services.
