Delhi’s app developer bought JioHotstar domain, placed this condition in front of Reliance to sell it
The merger of Reliance’s Viacom18 and Disney+ Hotstar is one of the biggest deals of this year. Now an app developer from Delhi has found a ray of hope for himself in this merger. An ‘anonymous’ developer has bought a domain named jiohotstar.com. He thinks that after the merger, when Jio and Hotstar become one, they will contact him to buy this domain. In return, he does not want a huge amount. He is demanding to bear the expenses of studying in Cambridge.
The app developer on the jiohotstar.com domain has written an open letter to the officers of Reliance Industries. He has told how he got the idea of buying this domain. The developer says that in the year 2023, he read in the news that after losing the streaming rights of IPL, the subscribers of Disney Plus Hotstar are decreasing and it is thinking of selling or merging its platform with an Indian company.
According to the developer, since merger talks were also going on between Zee and Sony, he felt that a deal could be done between Reliance’s Viacom18 and Disney. The developer says that when Jio bought the music streaming platform ‘Saavn’, its domain was changed to jiosavan.com.
The developer thought that if Jio and Hotstar merge, a domain jiohotstar.com can be created. The developer checked the domain and found it available, so he bought it. The developer hopes that by selling this domain he can fulfill his dream of studying in Cambridge. The app developer says that after the merger, jiohotstar.com will be a better domain than hotstar.com or jiocinema. He says that the cost of the domain is a minor thing for a billion dollar company, but it can fulfill his dream of studying in Cambridge.
