AI-Powered Video Generation Just Got an Upgrade — Veo 3 Now Live in India via Gemini App
Google has announced that it’s begun rolling out Veo 3, its latest AI-based video generation model, for Gemini app Pro members across India and the world. Announced at Google I/O 2025 last May, Veo 3 is integrated with the global IT company’s high quality 3D audio technology and can produce realistic audio effects including dialogue, background sound and nature within a short video clip.
What Is Veo 3?
Veo 3 is part of Google’s broader bet that the future of creative tools will involve more artificial intelligence. This is superior to previous generations which could only produce:
- Short video clips (up to 8 seconds long)
- Enhanced audio realism with synced sound effects
- Dialogue and ambient noises integrated into the scenes
It’s a big leap for AI-generated media, and the clips feel much more immersive, cinematic.
Who Can Access Veo 3?
Veo 3 was unveiled as part of the Google AI Ultra plan originally at $249.99/month. But consider the service accessible to everyone using Gemini Pro from Google now even those in India at a much cheaper price of only $19.99 a month.
According to Josh Woodward, VP at Google Labs and the Gemini app:
“Pro users can generate three video clips per day using Veo 3.”
Once the daily limit has been reached, users can continue making videos by using the former generation model Veo 2.
Availability and Rollout Plan
Veo 3 has been launched globally now and is currently available in 159 countries, including India. It is rolling out gradually, so some users might see the feature sooner than others depending on location and app version.
Why Veo 3 Matters
Veo 3’s arrival is significant because it:
- Lowers the cost barrier for AI video creation
- Introduces sound as a core element in AI-generated visuals
- Opens up creative possibilities for content creators, marketers, and educators using just text prompts
Now that it’s facing growing competition from OpenAI’s Sora, Runway’s Gen-3 Alpha, and other creative AI tools, making Veo 3 available inside its plain-old Gemini is a sensible move to stay relevant.
Final Thoughts
Now, with Veo 3 available to Indian creators at a low price point, Google has shown that it is keen for AI video generation to become mainstream. Regardless of whether you’re a digital artist, a marketer or just a fan, this might completely change the game for how short videos are made in the future.
