MUMBAI: Keeping in mind the promise of providing maximum high-definition channels; Dish TV has added another HD channel - Comedy Central HD to its portfolio.

With this, Dish TV has taken its HD channel & services count to 45, which is the highest in the country so far. It may be recalled that Videocon d2h recently upped its HD offering to 39 channels with the addition of Colors Infinity HD and Nat Geo Wild HD.

Dish TV chief operating officer Salil Kapoor said, “Latest trends suggest that the growth of the High Definition category over the past year together with rising sales of flat panel TVs (LED/LCD) has added a new dimension to superior HD viewing experience. With the usage of DTH connections with HD boxes, the experience quotient for the subscribers is all set to go up. We are proud to announce the addition of Comedy Central HD channel on our platform. Dish TV has a complete offering and mix of High-Definition entertainment, music, news and regional language channels and has maximum content with 45 HD channels and services, making it the highest in the country.”

Viacom18 EVP and head of English entertainment Ferzad Palia added, “We are thrilled to be a part of Dish TV's HD offering. Comedy Central HD is the country's premier English comedy destination and it is great that our viewers will now get to enjoy their daily dose of fun and laughter in high definition.”
