What went wrong with Hotstar?

For the unversed, users started to face problems when they tried to access Disney Plus Hotstar on Friday. While sometimes, Hotstar showcased PB-4000 error, other times it showcased NM 4000. To be precise, Disney+ Hotstar error NM 4000 occurs only if the site is unable to detect location. This issue mainly persists when an individual is using VPN services to watch Disney+ Hotstar contents. VPN portals or proxy websites block user's location data that cause the site to show Disney+ Hotstar error NM 4000. However, many users also shared different error, which simply suggest that Disney Plus Hotstar might have an issue from the backend. The company is yet to give any response on Hotstar Down issue. It is pertinent to mention here that, users who were trying to access content after the outage suffered problems. India vs Australia 2nd Test was airing at True Scoop News office and it did not face any problem. It means those who were continuously watching Hotstar, they were able to watch the match, however, those who exited from the app started to face problems.
