Star news is still having good presence in news channels despite having tough cometition by other news channels like aaj tak ndtv sahara samay like that
its strenght is it is pioneer in 24 hour news channels in india and having good analitical corrosspance and nice interviews. but they have to go miles ahead if they want to be in the race for the no 1 channel because taste of viewers is changin and they have to change themselves for that. there programs like big fight was quite famous. they have to cover more entertainment news and political discoveries if they want to be in the race. but still they are doing good work and they should add more new correspondance and news reader if they want to add something fresh in their news channels.they should add more hindi news time for hindi news viewers
one can competie the star news with aaj tak and sahara samaya . nowadays dd 2 news is also giving stiff competition to them
they should try to make it free to air channel also
