Dialog Television Partners with Sony LIV to Deliver 50,000+ Hours of Premium Global Entertainment to Sri Lanka

Dialog Television, Sri Lanka’s #1 Pay-TV provider, is bringing the globally renowned streaming platform Sony LIV to Sri Lanka, giving customers access to one of the region’s largest streaming libraries with over 50,000 hours of premium content. This milestone reinforces Dialog’s commitment to enriching digital lifestyles by making world-class entertainment more affordable and accessible, with seamless integration across Dialog ViU+ enabled devices, including the ViU Hub, ViU Mini, and ViU+ App.

Sony LIV is available to all Dialog Television customers at a highly competitive price of LKR 499 per month, inclusive of taxes. Customers will gain access to over 50,000 hours of premium entertainment content spanning Hollywood blockbusters, Sony LIV originals, international films, top-rated television series, and marquee live sporting events such as cricket and UEFA football. Dialog Television Gold subscribers will receive complimentary access as a premium benefit, further enhancing customer value and loyalty. Whether streaming via Dialog ViU+ enabled devices, including TVs, set-top boxes, smartphones, tablets, or through the Sony LIV platform, customers will experience uninterrupted entertainment on the screen of their choice. The service is further differentiated by its local-currency pricing model, which avoids the risks of currency fluctuations seen in USD-billed platforms, and by the recurring SVOD format offering customers a smoother, more economical alternative to traditional TVOD models in the local market.

More than just another streaming service, Dialog is Sri Lanka’s entertainment super-aggregator, uniting leading global and regional content providers—such as ViU+, Sony LIV, Lionsgate Play, and more—within a single, integrated ecosystem. Setting a new benchmark for digital entertainment in the country, Dialog delivers the same on-demand variety, affordability, and convenience enjoyed in advanced markets, while catering to local viewing preferences. With a continuously expanding library and seamless access across devices, Dialog ensures all Sri Lankans can enjoy world-class content with unmatched flexibility, choice, and value.

Lim Li San, Group Chief Operating Officer, Dialog Axiata PLC said, "Our partnership with Sony LIV marks a new chapter in making world-class entertainment more accessible for Sri Lankans. This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to deliver high-quality, affordable, and inclusive digital services. Through seamless integration with Dialog ViU+ and unparalleled value for money, we are proud to empower our customers with the freedom to enjoy the best in global content anytime, anywhere."

Manish Aggarwal, Head-Growth & Monetization, Sony LIV, said, “Our collaboration with Dialog marks an important step in expanding Sony LIV’s footprint in Sri Lanka. By combining Dialog’s strong distribution ecosystem with our rich and diverse content offering, we are committed to delivering exceptional value and world-class entertainment to Sri Lankan audiences in the most accessible and affordable way.”
