Broadcast Channels is one of the newest features on Instagram, gradually rolling out to people across India.
It is a public, one-to-many messaging tool for public figures and creators to invite all of their followers into, and engage with their most interested fans.
They can use text, photo, video and voice notes to share their latest updates and behind-the-scenes moments and even create polls to crowdsource fan feedback.

I hope to see you all there!”
Fans can access the link to Vijay’s broadcast channel on a mobile device via his Story sticker or the link pinned to his profile or, as an existing follower, a one-time notification would have been sent when he started his channel, the actor added.
Tap “Join broadcast channel.” People not yet following the actor will be prompted to do so. After joining the channel, it will appear in the Instagram inbox next to other message threads.
Followers can react to content and vote in polls, but cannot send messages.
