Mumbai, 20th June 2018: Close on the heels of the successful launch of Zero KMS, ZEE5 - India’s largest and most comprehensive digital entertainment platform for multilingual entertainment, today released yet another unmissable series, a light humoured family watch – Babbar Ka Tabbar.
Babbar Ka Tabbar reflects the times that we live in and addresses the generation gap between today’s youth and their parents in a quirky way. Watch out for the ultimate generation battle that’s the story of every household in the country! The series showcases a Punjabi family, the Babbars and their daily life struggles while trying to maintain sanity. Their saviour is their tenant Jamia played by Anshuman Jha, who becomes the sutradhaar between the parents and the kids. Jamia, because of his affinity to every member becomes almost a ‘part of the family’, providing solutions to everyday issues in the lives of the Babbars.
LSD (Love, Sex aur Dhoka) fame Anshuman Jha, on his first web series says, “It has been really exciting working with seasoned actors like Manu Rishi and Ayesha Raza. Babbar ka Tabbar is fresh, relatable and a fun to watch series, something I have never attempted before. I can’t wait to find out the audience’s reaction to the show.”
ZEE5 has a diverse array of content that it is curating through the platform. Zero KMS– a thriller series, Mehmaan riding on suspense and Life Sahi Hai 2– a mix of drama and comedy; these are Hindi shows already garnering a great response. The regional series like Horn Ok Please in Marathi, America Mappillai in Tamil, Nanna Koochi in Telugu, Utsaha Ithihasam in Malayalam, etc. and some of our big launches in pipeline include – Sunny Leone’s biopic ‘Karenjit Kaur’, ‘Lockdown’, the first musical series from Rapper Badshah’s production house and many more.
