Its an unofficial leaked news. No official confirmation and hence no further info too.

I am not aware if this news has been published elsewhere.

even I googled for a month and no news about closure.

But now its almost confirmed. Only official press release is pending.

Bhavan bro had once told that cbs spark was still running in SL.

Will they continue to carry on with Big RTL Thrill and Punjabi ?

I guess no cbs content is on RTL and Spark Punjabi already a local channel

why they are not expending these channels to all DTHs?
