The country's leading entertainment conglomerate, Viacom 18 Media has announced the launch of its flagship channel Colors in the Middle East.
The channel will be broadcasted via direct-to-home platform through Arab Digital Distribution Company (ADD), a leading DTH player in the Middle East and the North African region.
