Mumbai, March 14: Facebook on Thursday announced partnerships with top music labels in India that will let users express themselves with music in their posts on its platform as well as on Instagram.
With the partnerships with T-Series Music, Zee Music Company and Yash Raj Films, Facebook will allow its nearly 300 million Indian users include their favourite music in videos, messages, posts, stories and other creative content.
