This service, powered by BigFlix would cost the consumers Rs. 229 per month, without any additional bandwidth consumption charges levied on it, except for those consumers based in Punjab. Consumers can view the content on either their computer, or their laptop, or even on their tablet. Airtel adds that its service will be available on Wi-Fi, as well and therefore can be enjoyed anywhere around one’s space without any restrictions.

The payment for its online movie viewing service will come as a part of the generic broadband bill that Airtel’s users get each month, and hence Airtel claims this to be an easy payment mode.
