If the sharks would come to the home of the founders, then their father would not feel comfortable, because for 54 years his mind is filled with some misunderstandings that the literate people talks in English and Hindi. Same as that 100 crore people in our country speak in their own dialect, and they are been degraded due to their way of speaking. But dialects are our identification. They have brought Stage to give recognition to the languages. The first OTT platform of languages of our country, where people can find movies, web series, and many other things in the country in different languages. Our country is associated with more than 19,000+ dialects.

Then why are movies and web series made in only a few languages? Dialects have no literature of their own, and movies are not made with this. Dialects do not even have a TV channel or radio channel, and the OTT platform for dialects is far. They have started with the Haryani dialect content. The biggest achievement of Stage is that due to this more than 1000+ Haryani artists have got employment, and with the help of these artists they have made 300+ hours of original content library in Haryanvi & Rajasthani. We also got good responses from the people when we were ready with good content. Today, there are more than 1.3 lakhs+ paid subscribers, who give Rs. 400/year as a subscription fee. They started making Rajasthani content three months ago and identified 20 dialects that they are going to launch in the upcoming 5 years. The stage is a like Netflix of dialects. Their one web series is 6-8 episodes, and there are 25-30 minutes per episode, which is made under Rs. 20 Lakhs. The expense of a movie is also around Rs. 18-20 Lakhs. The main problem in this business is the cost of content. The cheapest content also carries a budget of Rs. 2-3 Crores, and the average Hindi content costs Rs. 8-10 Crores for one web series. Their business model goes with the subscription which is called a recharge by their users. It has Rs. 400 recharge that goes for 1 year. It is not based on the freemium model.
