For Rs 35, you get 1GB of data plus 28 days of access to any two regional OTT platforms of your choice. Here is what the pack includes, who can use it, and the one catch to know before recharging.

What You Get for Rs 35
The Rs 35 pack is a data voucher with an entertainment twist. It gives you 1GB of mobile data and access to any two premium regional OTT platforms through the Vi Movies & TV app. The two benefits run on different clocks: the data lasts 7 days, while the OTT access lasts 28 days. The pack does not add service validity to your number — it only works on top of an active base recharge.
The 6 OTT Options and 9 Languages
You can pick any two of these six platforms when you activate the pack:
- SonyLIV South — Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada content
- Chaupal — Punjabi, Haryanvi and Bhojpuri content
- ManoramaMAX — Malayalam entertainment
- KLiKK — Bengali entertainment
- AddaTimes — Bengali entertainment
- Aao NXT — Odia content
Together they cover nine Indian languages, so the pack is aimed squarely at regional-language viewers who do not want to pay for a separate streaming subscription for each language they watch.
How to Activate the Vi Rs 35 Pack
Eligible Vi prepaid customers with an active service-validity recharge can activate the pack through the Vi app or through authorised third-party recharge channels. After buying it, choose your two OTT platforms inside Vi Movies & TV. The subscriptions are mobile-only — you cannot watch them on a television through this pack. If you want to keep the OTT access going after 28 days, you buy the pack again.
Who Should Buy It — and Who Should Not
This pack makes sense if you already have an active Vi base plan and you watch regional movies or shows on your phone. At Rs 35 — about Rs 5 a day over the data’s life — two OTT apps for a month is genuinely cheap. It does not make sense as a standalone recharge: with no base plan it does nothing, and the 1GB of data is only enough for light use. Vi launched four voice-only plans last month under TRAI’s mandate; this Rs 35 add-on is a different thing entirely — entertainment, not calling.
Our take: for regional-language viewers on Vi, this is the cheapest way to get two OTT apps for a month — just remember the data runs out in a week while the OTTs keep going for four.
