This is as Ultraview surprises audiences with a second bouquet on its recently launched pay TV offering, right in time for the long weekend.

The Spice bouquet is the latest addition of niche channels with never-been-seen programmes, which officially launches on Thursday at 6.30pm.

The Spice bouquet will feature two channels, Star Select and Zee Family, which promise to be an entertainment hot spot with a variety of Hindi content, Ultraview said.

“Viewers can get a taste of the flavourful content for a limited period, at no cost,” they added.

They added that from then on, the Spice bouquet will be available on a subscription basis at R119.99 per month using the Openview decoder to activate the chosen bouquet.

“Star Select is a premium Hindi bespoke entertainment channel, specially curated for South Africa’s Hindi-speaking viewers,” the channel explained.

Star Select is the entertainment hot spot that offers something for every age group, making the channel a family destination that offers the best romantic dramas, entertaining comedy shows, popular reality TV and the biggest Bollywood blockbuster hits.

Some of the shows include “Banni Chow Home Delivery” (genre: drama), “Swayamvar: Mika Di Vohti” (genre: reality), “Pyar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyara Pyara” (genre: romance), “Saubhagyavati Bhava” (genre: drama), “May I Come In, Madam” (genre: comedy) and many more.
