A popular web series called "Gita Stories" is the preferred choice among users.Within the age group of 18-30, the majority of users (85% male and 15% female) belong to the Hindi-speaking market (HSM).20% of respondents above the age of 30(adults), take less interest in religious-specific content, with 70% male and 30% female respectivelyThe most-watched show on OMTV app is "KALAM" - Gita Stories, which revolves around one of the true-life events of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam AzadAddressing the surge of  younger generation on the app, Nitin Jai Shukla, Founder & MD at OMTV said, “In today's rapidly changing Indian society, the inclinations of the country's youth towards religious content are noticeably shifting.

Factors such as social media addiction, anti-India propaganda, urban anxiety, academic pressures, mental health concerns, and the disintegration of joint families contribute to this trend. Religious content acts as a bridge, allowing them to connect with their cultural and spiritual roots, imparting a sense of identity and heritage. Encouraging an inclusive approach to religious content while providing support in areas such as mental health, academic pressures, and career guidance will help the Indian youth navigate the complexities of the modern world while staying connected to their cultural roots.”
