Mumbai: Enterr10 TV Network's flagship channel Dangal TV, Flipkart and Starcom India have joined hands to create a content-to-commerce experience in India, integrating entertainment and shopping through the popular Hindi drama Rimjhim.
The initiative comes as audiences increasingly move between entertainment, social platforms and commerce, creating opportunities for brands and content platforms to build more interactive and actionable consumer experiences. For Flipkart, the association expands its role in digital commerce and affiliate-led product discovery by bringing its catalogue of more than 150 million products into familiar entertainment narratives. The approach aims to allow consumers to discover products at moments of inspiration and move directly from what they see on screen to what they can shop. For Dangal TV, the partnership leverages the channel's growing digital ecosystem and audience scale.
Its YouTube ecosystem was ranked the #1 Media & Entertainment Creator worldwide for July, with more than 65 million subscribers and over 2.4 billion monthly views. Starcom India played a central role in developing the strategic and creative framework for the collaboration, working with Flipkart and Dangal TV to bring the content-to-commerce experience to life.
