In this guide, we will show you the steps to cast Hotstar on TV without using a Chromecast. HotStar has quickly upscaled the popularity charts and has become the go-to choice for OTT platform lovers. The reason for the same is hardly a hidden secret. First and foremost, the fact that it broadcasts IPL is enough to give it the popular tag. Add to it, the fact that it has partnered with Disney+, and we couldn’t have asked for more.
Furthermore, it has spread its wings across various platforms and OS. While its mobile app attracts maximum traffic, but there are some who wish to get a more immersive experience. And hence opt for television viewing. However, the days of cable TVs are long gone. Moreover, when you have already purchased a subscription for the lies of Hotstar, Amazon Prime, Hulu, and Sony Liv, it really doesn’t make much sense in burning a hole in your pockets.
As a result, many users prefer to directly case the TV shows, series, and live sports from the Hotstar app on their device over to their TV. For that, you need casting services such as Chromecast. However, not every user has a Google Chromecast or Amazon Firestick. So is there any alternate way out? Turns out, there is, and we will make you aware of just that. So without further ado, here all the required instructions to cast Hotstar on TV without using a Chromecast.
