Diwali, India’s biggest and most celebrated holiday of the year, is a festival of lights that celebrates the triumph of light over darkness.

The buffet of channels would usually cost an additional £12 per month.

But from now until 20 November, they won’t cost customers a penny.

As part of the package, TV viewers will get access to a raft of channels such as SONY TV HD, Zee TV HD and Utsav Gold HD.
