Redbull Anchor Chat
Red Bull Dance Your Style is a globally celebrated live dance competition aired on JioTV. To match the high-energy experience and increase real-time audience engagement, we built a dynamic live chat layer — Red Bull Anchor Chat. This feature allowed viewers to actively react, vote, and stay in sync with behind-the-scenes updates without leaving the show.
