Arré is working with collaborators across the spectrum in developing original content; from writers, artists, journalists and storytellers to independent filmmakers, established production houses as well as upcoming talent in fiction, reality and non-fiction genres.

    Said B.Saikumar, Founder and Managing Director, UDigital: “Arré was born out of the need to create a truly disruptive digital product.
