DD Metro also known as DD 2 was an Indian free-to-air television channel. It was launched in 1984 as DD2 in Delhi as an alternative to DD National. Later, it increased its coverage area by expanding to Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai. In 1993, the channel was rebranded as DD-2 Metro.[1] On 3 November 2003, the Prasar Bharati Corporation replaced DD Metro with their new news channel, DD News.[2]
DD Metro programming consisted of many genres of television programmes, including family dramas boasting women as main characters, comedies, reality TV shows and others. The channel's prime-time shift Metro Gold[3][4] was a landmark in Indian television history, and it replaced Star Plus as the top Hindi-language entertainment channel in 2000 and 2001.[5] DD Metro also used to broadcast some TV series from its sister channel, DD National. In addition, DD Metro was also known for dubbing English and other language movies into Hindi.[6][7]
