Rehashing the cult classic path-breaking films such as Padosan and Sholay, the brand films reconstruct the scenes merged with contemporary situations and characters.

     

    Speaking on the occasion, Ruchir Tiwari, Business Head, Hindi Movies Cluster, ZEEL said “Zee Classic is a trendsetter within the cluttered television environment and its success lies in the truly distinct content. Classics, in its true sense, embody the cultural and cinematic roots that exude timeless warmth transcending generations. Zee Classic with its tagline of ‘Woh Zamaana, Kare Deewana’, promises to bring home the eternal magic of classic Hindi cinema. However, in order to make the content relevant for today, we are recreating those immersive moments with our brand films that will resonate with our dedicated audiences.

     

    The insight behind our new brand films is simple – classic cinema in its intrinsic value has the ability to transport you to a different world which today’s films rarely do and that is also in sync with our positioning Bhool Jao Sab Kuch aur Kho Jao Zee Classic ki Haseen Duniya Mein. With the best collection of movies spanning several eras of Indian Cinema, we are setting out to indulge our audiences to the finest treats.”
