MUMBAI: Siddharth Kumar Tewary’s Porus has changed the face of Indian television and is all set to do the same outside the country as well. The TV series has been constantly making the production house proud with its massive fan base as well as incredible reviews. Well, this fan base is sure to increase in the near future as the mega series has now been licensed to JKN Global Media for Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Brunei, Laos, Myanmar and to Soraya Intercine Films for Indonesia.

Swastik is the owner of the intellectual property (IP) for the series. The production house also owns premium video distribution company One Life Studios that has already inked licensing deals for its historical drama series across multiple international territories. Porus, at present, is available in nine countries across Asia besides India. Earlier, the show was licensed to Sirasa TV in Sri Lanka and Thai Public Broadcasting Service (TPBS) in Thailand.

One Life Studios Founder and Chief Creative Siddharth Kumar Tewary says, “Porus is rapidly taking over the world, with nine countries sold since the incredible launch just last November. We are very proud to share the important and exciting story of Porus with the global audience, and we intend to announce additional territories in the near future,”

In Sri Lanka, Porus was launched in January under the name Digvijaya. The 260-episode series was bought by Maharaja Television (MTV) and was dubbed in the local language of Sinhala, in order to reach out to Sinhalese worldwide. The show is also being streamed on Maharaja TV’s digital platform.
