He owns the majority stake of Viacom 18, a joint venture between Reliance’s Network18 Media & Investments and ViacomCBS that distributes Indian versions of Viacom channels and operates Indian streamer Voot, which in September appointed veteran media exec Jyoti Deshpande as CEO, making her one of the top-ranking female leaders in Indian entertainment. Ambani also holds smaller stakes in streamers ALTBalaji, operated by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms, and Eros Now, an OTT service owned by STXfilms parent ErosSTX.
