DistroTV, among the largest, independent free ad-supported streaming television platforms, has announced DistroTV Desi, initially offering 15+ premier South Asian channel content for free – no subscription or registration necessary.
The bundle is expected to grow exponentially over the coming weeks and will be available across the UK, US, Europe, and Canada and offer viewers a variety of diverse content focusing on news, entertainment and lifestyle geared towards the Indian and wider South Asian diaspora.
Navdeep Saini, co-founder and CEO of DistroScale – the parent company of DistroTV, said: “We're thrilled to provide our diverse and growing global audience with the content they crave, without any subscription fees.
“No longer will Desi communities in these major markets feel that they cannot access their favorite shows or channels, or feel restricted by associated costs. Our mission at DistroTV is to provide content for every viewer, on every device. And that’s exactly what we’re accomplishing with this latest bundled offering.”
With the DistroTV Desi Bundle, DistroTV says it aims to serve a massive underserved audience, who are lacking authentic entertainment from their home countries.

Rajesh Nair, Vice President of Business Development & Content Acquisition at DistroScale, said: “This is just the beginning, we have many more channels in the pipeline. Smaller South Asian audiences with regional language roots like Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, and Malayalam who have been largely ignored by mainstream media platforms can now watch their favourite channels in their regional language on DistroTV Desi, without having to depend on dodgy boxes and pirated apps.”
These channels can be viewed for free anywhere across a wide array of CTV and mobile devices, as well as on the web by visiting Distro.tv, with no registration or signup required.
