In the year 2023, radio shows became the most popular way to pass the time because of how interesting the stories were. The first platform to offer an immersive experience with gripping plays, suspenseful tales, romance, and more was Pocket FM, which is a radio series platform. People all over India were really interested in shows like “Insta Millionaire” and “Devil Se Shaadi.” People fell in love with Pocket FM because it was easy to use, had a nice design, and could be listened to on the go.
Web Shows:
By providing a wide range of material in themes such as thrillers, suspense, romance, drama, and more, OTT continued to write its own success story. It was shows like Farzi, Jubilee Season 1, The Railway Men: The Untold Story Of Bhopal 1984 Season 1, Guns & Gulaabs Season 1, Made In Heaven Season 2, The Jengaburu Curse Season 1, and Saas, Bahu Aur Flamingo Season 1 that kept people glued to their screens.

It’s fair to say that SRK gave Bollywood the much-needed boost it needed.
