"The partnership makes available a wide range of latest, high-quality movies and TV shows to our millions of customers, giving them exclusive access to a diverse selection of entertainment and rich content with an unparalleled streaming experience on the data strong Vodafone SuperNetTM 4G network," Vodafone India Director (Commercial) Sandeep Kataria said in a statement here.
