In a shocking development, U.S.-based Turner Broadcasting System
Inc, a Time Warner company, has decided to wind up the operations of
'Imagine TV' in India because of poor ratings.
Turner
had bought a majority stake in Imagine TV while clinching a deal with
NDTV, which previously owned the Hindi entertainment channel. The deal
was signed in 2009 at $117 million.
Imagine TV's India and international feed 'Imagine Dil Se' will be
shut with effect from today on April 12. Today is the last working day
for Imagine TV in India.
The fans of Imagine TV were left disappointed with the decision, as
they won't get another chance to watch serials like 'Chandragupta
Maurya', 'Mahima Shani Dev Ki', 'Preeto', 'Jamuna Paar' and Veena's
Swyamvar.
Shocking to see that a gr8 family drama like SSSP can be closed down so brutally without any prior warning by the channel..
