[South India, 4th September 2023]: OKIE, India’s leading home entertainment brand, is gearing up to launch its flagship 32-inch Sports Series Smart TVs in South India. Timed perfectly with the upcoming sports season, featuring events such as the much anticipated ICC World Cup 2023 and the Asia Cup 2023, this launch is a significant step forward for OKIE.

Jitin Masand, Founder and Managing Director of OKIE, said, “In recent years, largely thanks to the stellar performance of our sportspersons from across India, including the south, in the international arena, there has been an increased interest in watching a variety of sports at home. With homegrown league tournaments for different sports such as Kabaddi, Football, IPL and other international sporting events for both men and women, non-cricketing events have also witnessed a surge in viewership. We have seen dramatic growth in demand for quality entertainment systems, especially from Tier 2 and 3 cities that are traditionally price-sensitive markets.
