Company history
In 1999, the newly formed network launched B4U Movies and B4U Music in the UK on the Sky Digital platform as a subscription package along with Sony Entertainment Television. The launch was surrounded by controversy, with rival network Zee TV claiming that B4U had stolen its database of subscribers in the UK. The B4U management claimed that they had got hold of the database from ex-employees and have been using it to send mailers promoting its service. In 2001, the network went on to launch the channels in the United States and Canada and the Middle East by the end of the year.
By 2000, B4U had established itself as a leading brand in Bollywood entertainment for the Indian Diaspora. B4U signed a deal with FTV to broadcast Indian fashion shows throughout the world as well as more local events. In 2001, the network won 9 Promax Awards. The network then ventured into movie production in 2002, co-producing all films produced by iDream.
