Video on Demand platform (VoD) SonyLiv has increased its Subscription VoD service with a multi-year strategic deal with American-based entertainment giants, Lionsgate, reports the Television Post.

The strategic partnership will see Lionsgate Play premium offering on SonyLIV, over 500 hours of Lionsgate premium original series. Various hits like Power, Vida, Sweetbitter, The White Queen, The White Princess and The Spanish Princess will be available on SonyLiv. Along with them, various Lionsgate library titles such as Crash, Manhattan, Wildfire, Are We There Yet? and Chasing Life will be available on subscription VoD as part of the deal.

“We are excited to partner with SonyLIV to bring Lionsgate Play in India. Our collaboration is the latest milestone in elevating our brand in India, and we’re delighted to kick off our partnership with a robust portfolio of Lionsgate programming. Sony India as a media house has a legacy of bringing cutting-edge entertainment to Indian audiences, making them the perfect choice for us to bring to the Indian audience some of our most successful premium English content. This is a great starting point for the two companies, and we are excited about the journey ahead of us,” said Lionsgate India MD Rohit Jain.

SonyLIV’s SVoD subscribers will be able to avail the Lionsgate Play over various subscription plans of Rs 99 for a month, Rs 299 for six months and Rs 499 for a year. Most of the Lionsgate content is exclusive to SonyLIV. However, due to existing licensing deals between Lionsgate and Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, there will also be duplication of various content.
