When they will add Zee Tamil HD on their own platform DishTV/DittoTV/OZEE/Z5 ?
 
The app is very unstable right now. I suggest wait for atleast a beta version. Also, it is presented as Zee5 in the app, not Z5
 
She came, she saw, she conquered is an adage which perfectly describes Sunny Leone and her tryst with Bollywood. After making her debut in Jism 2, Sunny has gone on to feature in a number of films. But if that wasn’t enough the actress, has even launched her own line of clothing and perfumes and plans on launching her own production house as well. However, we aren’t talking about any of these or for that matter any show Sunny will be hosting, instead we are talking about a new web series that will be developed by ZEE for their own OTT platform.

Sources close to the development state that Sunny Leone has in fact been roped in for the yet unknown web series, though the actress is yet to sign the dotted line for the same. Apart from this our source also tells us that ZEE has shelled out a bomb to rope in the actress for their web series. While an official announcement of the show and Sunny Leone’s presence is being awaited, we for one can’t wait to see what the show will be.

Back on the film front, Sunny Leone’s last cinematic out was the Arbaaz Khan starrer Tera Intezaar that released a while back. As of now, the actress who is busy with plenty of endorsements and show hosting is yet to announce her next venture.

QUOTE: On ZEE5, Goenka said that the video on demand (VoD) platform will launch in February with enviable breadth of content.

“On Zee5, our strategy is purely content driven, and the breadth of content that we want to offer will be our differentiator compared to anybody else out there. Yes, we will have original content on day one on Zee5. And also, in the application itself we are trying to build in certain features which may not be available on the current OTT platforms,” he stated.

The company will also look at acquiring exclusive digital rights of movies as it wants to be the owner of exclusive content.

“In terms of exclusivity on content, movie content for digital, I think that strategy is going to play out as we speak. I think right now we want to have exclusive content for our digital platform, not just movies but even on television shows. But that is something that we will have to answer as we go along,” Goenka said.
