We believe that titles like Bookworm and Chuzzle which appeal to a wide audience will be equally popular with mobile gamers in India”.

Companies like Sony Pictures Television (SPT) had announced a six new mobile games to be released in 2008 at the CTIA convention in Las Vegas while VH1 is soon launching a mobile game based on the on-air series Flavor of Love. Even closer to home mobile games on movies and filmstars have been launched regularly. Like recently a 3d mobile game on Neetu Chandra was launched.
