ShareChat and Moj’s extensive user base of over 325 million users will have access to an array of snackable content of their favourite sport in the language of their choice through JioCinema’s handle on both platforms. They will also get a peek into unheard tales, anecdotes, and conversations from dressing rooms, narrated by JioCinema’s iconic experts who until recently rubbed shoulders with current players across different teams.
