Deap Ubhi, co-founder and CEO, burrp.com said, "Television is an exploding medium in India but surprisingly there are not enough structured offerings in this space. As the Indian audiences grow wider and more diverse, the TV space will respond with more expansive content, creating a greater need to structure information and filter out the noise. That's where burrp!TV comes in the picture, continually helping users to make informed decisions." The company has roped in media networks such as Star, Sony, Zee and Discovery as well as other independent channels such as Zoom to support the platform with schedules and content.
