This is the same channel that is mentioned in the above article. Seems it got launched early.

Star India has launched its new movie channel, Star Movies Actions, targeted at male audiences. The new channel replaces the company’s action brand Fox Action Movies.

Fox Action Movies failed to earn profits, so STAR shut it down.
Then launched another channel with same content and new name
May be FOX name wont work in India
