The same plan is also available for families, where users can watch content in four different devices at the same time. It will be available for Rs 89 per month.
The current JioCinema Premium users will enjoy the benefits of the family plan at no additional cost. This is basically a price cut for JioCinema Premium.

This pricing is very competitive to that of the pricing of other OTT platforms. This move will certainly help the platform add more users in the near future. JioCinema has seen record digital viewership because of offering free IPL. However, it has yet to become as large as other OTT players such as SonyLIV, and more.
The new plans are now available for customers throughout the country on the platform of JioCinema. It will be interesting to see how this pans out for the company in the coming future.
