Global festival sensation ‘Berlin’ finds home on ZEE5 Global

August 20, 2024 by TVA Editor

ZEE5 Global, the world’s largest streaming platform for South Asian content, has announced its upcoming movie ‘Berlin,’ a groundbreaking spy thriller that has already taken the international film circuit by storm. Set against the backdrop of 1990s New Delhi, this first-of-its-kind espionage drama has garnered critical acclaim at various prestigious film festivals worldwide. Adding to its growing list of accolades, ‘Berlin’ was also screened at Indian Film festival of Melbourne (IFFM 2024) on 17th Aug at Hoyts Cinema. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Atul Sabharwal, ‘Berlin’ features a stellar ensemble cast including Aparshakti Khurana, Ishwak Singh, Rahul Bose, Anupriya Goenka, and Kabir Bedi. This high-stakes drama, lauded for its outstanding performances and distinctive storytelling, promises to be an engrossing tale of undercover activities, deceit, and moral ambiguity. Produced by Zee Studios and Yippee Ki Yay Motion Pictures, ‘Berlin’ is now set to captivate a wider audience as it prepares for its exclusive premiere on ZEE5 Global.
‘Berlin’ takes viewers into the icy winters of 1990’s in Delhi, where a silent storm of espionage is brewing. The story revolves around three main characters whose lives are about to collide in unexpected ways. Ishwak Singh will be seen in an unusual yet challenging role – a deaf-mute young man accused of being a foreign spy. Aparshakti Khurana, stepping out of his comfort zone, will be seen as a sign language expert tasked with unlocking the secrets hidden in silence. Anupriya Goenka adds fuel to the fire as an enigmatic agent, her true loyalties shrouded in mystery. Meanwhile, Rahul Bose races against time as an intelligence officer, fighting not just external threats but also the shadows within his own agency. As layers of deception peel away, alliances shift and questions multiply: In a world where nothing is as it seems. And in this high-stakes game of betrayal, who will make it out alive?
Archana Anand, Chief Business Officer at ZEE5 Global said, “Our latest addition, Berlin, has received critical acclaim at multiple international film festivals. We are extremely pleased to announce that this film will be streaming on our platform where it will be available for viewers in over 190 countries.  This film’s unique blend of espionage, drama, and cultural richness perfectly aligns with our vision of delivering world-class content to a diverse audience. Set against the dynamic backdrop of 1990s Delhi, ‘Berlin’ offers a fresh perspective on and elevates the espionage genre to new heights. We believe this powerful narrative will enthrall viewers worldwide and solidify ZEE5 Global’s position as the leading destination for premium South Asian storytelling.”
Umesh Kr Bansal, CBO, Zee Studios said, “Berlin’ is a groundbreaking addition to Zee Studios’ diverse slate, capturing a unique era in Indian history through an intense spy thriller. We’re proud to see its global acclaim and excited to bring this compelling story to our ZEE5 Global audience”
Producer Manav Shrivastav – Yippee Ki Yay Motion Pictures said, “We are delighted to join hands with ZEE5 Global for the launch of ‘Berlin’. This platform offers us the perfect stage to showcase this intricate, high-stakes spy thriller to a vast and diverse audience across India and beyond. ‘Berlin’ is a movie that pushes the boundaries of the espionage genre in Indian content, and we are very happy that it will soon premiere on the platform for audience to watch it. We’re confident that this partnership with ZEE5 Global will help us reach a far wider audience.
Filmmaker Atul Sabharwal mentioned, “With ‘Berlin’, we’ve created a spy thriller that is sure to keep the audiences on the edge of their couches. The on-screen chemistry between Aparshakti and Ishwak is nothing short of electric – it’s a treat that I believe viewers will thoroughly enjoy. Having the opportunity to collaborate with such versatile stars, alongside our visionary producers and the platform giant ZEE5 Global, is any filmmaker’s dream. We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this project, and I’m optimistic it will strike a chord with viewers. The entire team is excited and eagerly looking forward to the premiere. ‘Berlin’ is our labour of love that we can’t wait to share with the world.”
