SRK endorses Dish TV...but Paanchvi Pass sponsored by Tata Sky..

[AvidWatcher]

Hi all,As we all know Shah Rukh Khan endorses Dish TV, but the soon to be launched game show 'Kya Aaap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain' is being co-sponsored by Tata Sky!If you are thinking what difference does it make...think this way....SRK is the current brand ambassador for Airtel, but if the program KBC was sponsored by Vodafone....then Airtel would have surely reacted by suing Vodafone for that!As if the lack of newly launched channels wasnt enough, this is one more area where Dish TV is not even aware about its competitors moves. Even if they are..they are simply watching...seems they have spent all money on SRK endorsement..keeping him well fed...and have no money to take action against Tata Sky!

as long as SRK doesnt say word 'Tata Sky' in program, it wont be problem.

SRK endorses Airtel and DishTv; and he owns an IPL team while Dish Tv owner Subhash Chandra runs rival ICL. This is one of the biggest contradictions. But Chandra's logic might be - lets keep these two issues separate. If you go even deeper, Star Plus is owned by Star which has a 20% stake in Tata Sky.So, while apparent conflicts like the same person endorsing two brands might be fought about, such round about contradictions (Dish Tv vs. Tata Sky) are not really worth fighting on. My opinion.

That is very true. In KBC, he could say Airtel, Compaq because he endorsed them and products were used in show. In new show I don't think TATASKY is related and SRK need to mention it, so DISHTV might not worry I guess.
But yes in ICL, some team is sponsered by DISHTV, don't know how IPL will react if ICL uses SRK poster with DISHTV for that team :ashamed:

either 1st April joke which stays spread for 2-3 more days or marketing gimmick.
