History

Dangal TV was launched as a Bhojpuri movie channel in 2010 for India. In 2015, it was converted into a Hindi general entertainment channel by acquiring and aired most of the Hindi television shows from the former defunct entertainment channel Imagine TV and along with television channels like DD National, Star Plus, Sony Entertainment Television, Zee TV, Colors TV and Sahara One.^[4][5]

In 2017, Dangal TV made an entry into original content called Crime Alert (the first one-hour television show based on real-life crimes in India), Bahurani (the first original reality show) and Shivarjun: Ek Ichhadhari Ki Dastaan (the first original soap opera).^[6] After making an entry to original space, Dangal TV became the most watched Hindi-language entertainment channel by beating paid television channels.^[7]

In 2021, Dangal TV made a deal with Viacom 18 by streaming their entire shows to their OTT app Voot.^[8] In the same year, they stopped airing acquired shows until October and started airing only original content shows. It was converted into an original entertainment channel, as their acquired shows were moved to the newly launched entertainment channel Dangal 2.^[9]

Reception

Dangal TV gained a response from Hindi speaking viewers by acquiring television shows from Hindi television channels, along with original shows like Mann Sundar, Mann Ati Sundar, Nath, Gehna, Crime Alert, Aye Mere Humsafar, Pyaar Ki Luka Chuppi, Ranju Ki Betiyaan, and Prem Bandhan.^[10]
