Marking the first of its kind deal for any news channel in the country, ETV has bagged the television broadcast rights for ‘The Great Khali Returns Series’ scheduled for 24 in Haldwani and 28 February in Dehradun.
This clearly indicates the rapid upward trend in demand for original sporting content.
As per the terms of the deal, ETV will not just broadcast the fights live but will also extend promotional support for the series through its entire network. In addition to featuring 14 international wrestlers including the great Khali, the series has also been designed to offer an ideal platform, at par with any international event of this scale, for an equal number of budding Indian wrestlers.
Commenting on the association, ‘The Great Khali Returns Series’ chairman Ranjit Rawat said, “The Great Khali Return Series is an endeavor of our chief minister to not just further enhance the sporting fervour amongst the youth of our state but also announce the year of sports in Uttarakhand culminating in the National Games in 2018.
This deal with ETV will go a long way in furthering this endeavour.”
