Poonam you should contact your Rogers provider. I know that they provide the channels free for some time as a marketing ploy to rope you in so the free period may have ended.

I've been getting Zee TV for the past 5 months and it ends at the end of October.

Bell is funny. It's giving me Zee. I would love to get Star or Sony. I have a friend getting Sony. Now I find out they are giving Star as well. 😆

So, I found out through a news article what the deal is with Rogers and StarPlus in Canada. FYI - StarPlus was airing on Rogers through ATN. Read the article for the rest of the story:

Rogers as per above won't be airing Star Plus through ATN 😳 Not sure if Rogers/Bell will separately air Star Plus like it does Zee TV, Sony, etc.

In the interim, I think you can get the content directly from Hotstar or indirectly through less reputable online sources.

Hotstar is now becoming available in Canada for a fee. So, check again even if you were previously told that it is not available.

ATN costs money in Ontario. That's weird.

A lot of Hotstar shows are available now (except for the ones that are currently airing). I usually watch off Desitvbox or Yo Desi for that reason. Everything is available there for a good 12 hours after the episode airs.
