Update: I just had a word with Airtel DTH CC. They confirmed that the box will be leased and you don't actually own it. The 4999 and 7999 is actually for DTH subscription, installation charges and non refundable deposit. It also wont work as standalone Android TV without a DTH Subscription. I'd rather stick with Tata Sky and smart tv apps for now.
went through the reviews... fun read. hardware quality is bad. most people are facing issues with remote and bluetooth connectivity. performance seems to be bad. airtel dth subscription is required even for chromecasting feature. hilarious shit.
I also had call with Airtel CC just to check offer.
When I said I dont want now, I will call later (reason I gave was slow speed broadband at home), still CC girl told I can use it as normal STB to watch DTH channels. I would have been still interested if it has Hotstar or Amazon Prime Video.

I assume Hotstar has an Android TV app? Amazon Prime probably does not because Amazon wants you to buy their Fire branded devices. Though Airtel promised that this box would get Amazon Prime support because well this is being sold through Amazon. But then one cannot trust Airtel.
