I guess the people who are running the Hotstar's twitter have no idea what they are talking about

That's a long name to have for a streaming service.

Yeah!

I think that's the name of the name of the Subscription Plan...

This is what they said

“We will be rebranding our existing Hotstar VIP and Premium subscription tiers to Disney Plus Hotstar."

‘Disney+ Hotstar’ India Release Date Announced

It would be nice just named and mentioned like this...

It will be just name of a price tier. They are not going to rebrand Hotstar.

Yeah. But can be considered as a strategic move. Introducing Disney+ alone can't gain a massive subscriber base in India. Including contents in Hotstar just like HBO shows will not make any value to 'Disney+' brand. Through a complete rebrand of app naming 'Disney+ Hotstar' can mutually benefit each other.ie it can make use of Hotstar's popularity at the same time 'Disney' brand will make it more premium feel.
Even though I have a doubt whether Hotstar undergo renaming or not.

Like @hike said, "Hotstar, by Disney" will benefit all.

But the real question is if they are bringing all the classics and everything that disney+ has in US. almost 50% new age content of disney is already there on hotstar though

Yes.. most of the content is already available on Hotstar. Nat Geo too.
