Hollywood studio Lionsgate, on Wednesday, announced that it has partnered with Jio to bring the Lionsgate Play streaming service to JioFiber customers.

This alliance with JioFiber is our first major step amongseveral such initiatives to come in taking content on large screens within comforts of consumers’ home,” said Rohit Jain, Managing Director, Lionsgate South Asia.
