Ever wished your favourite cookery show would play when you were free to cook along? Or that you could get cricket highlights or scoreboards when you wanted them? You’ll find all that and more in Direct-To-Home (DTH) satellite provider Tata Sky ’s innovative interactive services.

Easy Cooking

Actve Cooking gives you four new recipes to try out every day with on-demand videos. Actve Learning provides quizzes on maths, science and general knowledge for kids between the ages of seven and 11 (courtesy of 24X7guru.com), and Actve Stories provides TV-based story books that little children can read—and listen to— at their own pace.

This means that a family can take a break from TV serials and have a crack at the quizzes together, and you can choose the answer with your Tata Sky remote. Or you can try your luck at the ‘Lakhpati Kaun?’ game on Actve Games instead.

As of now, all the interactive channels remain free of charge, but a small amount may be charged in the near future.
