HBO has produced some blockbuster shows that have remained popular decades after they first aired.
The original licensing deal between the two parties was signed back in late 2015 when the platform was simply called ‘Hotstar' which brought over HBO content to the streaming service.
At the time, Game of Thrones was a huge draw, which began streaming on Hotstar in India immediately after it finished airing in the US.
