The application provides subscribers, access to VOD content that includes reality shows like BIG BOSS, Devotional Content, Movies, Original B R Chopra Mahabharata & more, in capsule format. MTS customers can also watch the last seven episodes from tv channels including LIFE OK, STAR PLUS, CHANNEL V, among others. Note that this is not a mobile tv service and MTS already has a tie-up with Apalya for TV streaming for its data card and EVDO mobile users. The service is available to MTS customers as a pre-embedded app on all Android handsets sold via MTS. However, MTS Android users who bought the device before the launch of the app, can also download it by sending SMS to 52526. What's interesting is that charges per clip are Rs 3, Rs 5, and Rs 7 depending on the content.
