New Delhi:Filmmakers Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Nitesh Tiwari is all set to embark audience on an incredible journey by narrating the story of India's biggest tennis heroes Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi on marquee show 'Break Point', streamed on ZEE5

Elaborating on the latest show, Nimisha Pandey, Head – Hindi Originals, Zee5 India said:"'Break Point' is a genre-breaking show. It is a dramatic story of the two living legends of Indian tennis and their journey, portraying the trajectory of their highs and lows. It is not a dramatisation as it features 'Leander Peas and Mahesh Bhupathi' themselves. The story showcases them sharing their anecdotes with the audience. In a nutshell, there is a unique and engaging treatment being given to the story enabling audiences a peek into the lives of these two iconic figures, which a lot of their fans have been curious about."

Zee5 is known to collaborate with other content players to create an OTT ecosystem.

"We strongly believe that the platforms are only as good as the creators they collaborate with. Hence, our constant quest is to widen our spectrum of collaboration by engaging with the best of the talent in the industry."

"We are as excited to work with big content studios as we are with independent passionate storytellers. And, by synchronising well-crafted ideas and a shared vision, we aim to bring invigorating stories to our viewers to constantly captivate their minds. ZEE5's mosaic of content is a testimony of the diverse nature of our content offerings which leaves viewers spoiled for choice" she added.

Our show 'SOS', which was dubbed in Tamil and Telugu is garnering great response from the viewers" Nimisha added.
