Hollywood.TV's website averages over 1,000,000 views per day and that number is growing considerably due to its tremendous global exposure.
Needless to say, by reporting on everything that happens in Hollywood, Hollywood.TV has made Hasan a household name in the US, with the likes of Tom Cruise, Clint Eastwood and countless other Hollywood "A-list" celebrities heaping lavish praise on the British born Muslim, now dubbed "The Muslim American Dream".
But beyond the hype and admirable self-promotion is a serious business: Top Silicon Valley analysts have stated that Sheeraz Hasan's online assets are worth in the multi-billions of dollars.
Hasan's prominence in Hollywood has led to him being recognised and awarded around the world. He has already been featured in Fortune Magazine, Forbes, Rolling Stone, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times and The Financial Times.
Last month Hasan was recognised by The Independent newspaper in Britain as one of the 20 Most Powerful Brits making it in America.
So what next? Hasan is currently in Dubai planning his next big launch, Dubai.TV. On Dubai.TV viewers worldwide will be able to access and watch everything that happens in Dubai, 24 hours per day, seven days a week, on demand.
"With Dubai.TV, once I acquired the brand, I knew I had struck gold," Hasan says. "Every time Dubai is in the news and every time Dubai is announcing a theme park, an island, or the tallest building in the world, the stock of my company rises. It happens each time the name Dubai is on television, the internet, radio or in the newspapers. It's simple. On Dubai.TV all I have to do is cover every event from celebrity parties, to fashion shows, to real estate developments, to product launches, to exhibitions, and the world will for the first time get the taste of one of the greatest cities in the world, the city of Dubai," Hasan says.
Dubai.TV will be a global portal with video content promoting Dubai's tourism, business, real estate and entertainment to the world. "It's Dubai as it happens," says Hasan.
"The biggest market that I am going to connect Dubai.TV to is America. Before Dubai.TV came along, there has never been a company in the world that promotes Dubai on a daily basis to the biggest stars in Hollywood or the American people. With Dubai.TV, those days are over," adds Hasan.
