Swastik launches India’s First Cultural Storytelling & Entertainment FAST Channel — where scale meets soul

Mumbai, October 29, 2025: Swastik Stories, the creative powerhouse behind India’s most beloved epics, has announced the launch of India’s first Cultural Storytelling and Entertainment FAST (Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV) Channel — a one-of-a-kind digital destination that brings India’s timeless tales, cultural wisdom, and spiritual legacy to today’s generation.

Reaching over 50 million users through platforms like JioTV, LG, Xiaomi TV, RunnTV, and other major Connected TV networks, Swastik Stories aims to redefine cultural entertainment for the digital age — making ancient Indian wisdom accessible, relatable, and relevant to modern audiences.

Hamara Vinayak — The First Digital Original

The channel’s debut original, Hamara Vinayak, will premiere on Friday, October 31, 2025, at 6:00 PM IST, marking the first-ever digital release by Swastik Stories. New episodes will drop every Friday on the official Swastik Stories YouTube channel and stream simultaneously on all FAST platforms — from smartphones to smart TVs.

Presented by 1Finance, Hamara Vinayak introduces a fresh storytelling format — 10–12-minute cinematic episodes crafted for today’s fast-paced viewers who seek “meaning in minutes.” The series merges mythology and modernity, exploring how Lord Vinayak’s eternal wisdom continues to guide individuals through the complexities of modern life.

A Legacy Reimagined for the Digital World

For over 18 years, Swastik Productions — the studio behind legendary shows like Mahabharat, RadhaKrishn, Porus, Karmaphal Daata Shani, Mahakaali, and Shrimad Ramayan — has been synonymous with grand Indian storytelling. With Swastik Stories, the brand now takes a digital leap, creating a multi-platform cultural ecosystem that unites tradition with technology.

Available across mobile, digital, and Connected TV, the new channel is on track to reach 90% of Connected-TV households by March 2026, solidifying its position as a leader in cultural digital entertainment.

Founder’s Vision: Stories with Soul

Speaking on the launch, Siddharth Kumar Tewary, Founder & Chief Storyteller, Swastik Stories, said:

“Swastik Stories is about giving Indian culture a new rhythm in the digital age. We want to reach every home, every screen, and every heart — to share stories that connect our past with our present. This is not just a channel launch; it’s the beginning of a movement — a journey to bring Indian storytelling to the world with honesty, heart, and hope.”
