aha is an Indian over-the-top streaming service which offers Telugu and Tamil-language content. It is owned by Arha Media & Broadcasting Private Limited, a joint venture between Geetha Arts and My Home Group.[1][2] The service was soft launched on 25 January 2020 and launched officially on 25 March 2020, coinciding with Ugadi, the Telugu New Year.[3][4]

History

Allu Aravind revealed that he was enamoured with the digital environment and developed a habit of binge-watching. Soon he came up with the idea of starting a streaming platform for hosting solely Telugu content. He then discussed the idea with his family, who encouraged him and which led to talks with Jupally Rameswar Rao, who joined as a partner in the venture. Ajit Thakur heads the platform.[4]

Market and expansion

After opting for a soft launch on 8 February 2020 an event named aha Preview was conducted where all the film makers who worked on ''aha Originals'' attended and presented their work.[5] In November 2020, aha announced actor Allu Arjun as its brand ambassador.[6] The platform has acquired one million subscribers within a year of its launch,[7] and by July 2021, it has over 1.5-million paid subscribers and 40-million-plus users, catering predominantly to the markets of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states.[8]

In August 2021, aha launched aha kids, a sub-brand focusing on children's programming. It is scheduled to launch on 10 September, coinciding with Vinayaka Chavithi.[9] aha 2.0 was launched[10] in November 2021 on a cloud-native platform from Firstlight Media.[11][12]

The Tamil language version of Aha was launched in February 2022.[13]
