Eros International plc was an Indian, multinational, mass-media conglomerate that mostly worked in the Indian film and entertainment industry. The company co-produced, acquired and distributed Indian-language films through its production-and-distribution subsidiary Eros International, and distributed them worldwide. The group's headquarters were in the Isle of Man and its distribution network existed in over 50 countries.[6] The group had offices in India, the United Kingdom, the United States, the United Arab Emirates, Australia, and Fiji. Kishore Lulla, the son of the founder Arjan Lulla, was the chairman of Eros International plc.[7]
On 16 April 2020, US film studio STX Entertainment announced it would merge with Eros International to form Eros STX; the transaction was expected to close by June that year.[8] The merger was completed in July 2020, forming Eros STX Global Corporation. The merged company experienced difficulties, and STX was demerged and sold to Najafi Companies in April 2022. Shortly after, ErosSTX announced its rebranding to Eros Media World plc.[9]
