Actor Amol Parashar is the new face of ZEE5 along with Sara Ali Khan as the streaming giant plans to lure younger audiences to the platform with new shows and films. With FRIENDS Reunion coming to ZEE5, the strategy was somewhat made clear, however, the announcement of a collaboration with TVF now cements the fact that ZEE5 has now planned to attract youth through its new content. In an exclusive interview with india.com, Amol too stressed on the same and also revealing that his next and most popular series – TVF Tripling Season 3, will also be streaming on ZEE5 soon.
“It’s exciting because it’s surprising. With the reach that we have now, we’ll be creating Tripling 3 for ZEE5 and there will be a couple of many shows streaming there. Even as an audience, I think it’s the surprise that we would feel while thinking ‘TVF and ZEE5 have come together?’,” he said.
Amol talked about the diverse content planning on ZEE5 and how having TVF onboard is like a nail in the coffin. He said, “There’s an attempt to approach and cater to a certain demographic which is the youth. I being a part of this campaign, collaboration with TVF, and then FRIENDS reunion, all the films that ZEE5 is committed to stream now – it’s a concerted strategy which is a smart thing to do. The passion of binge-watching a show lies with the younger audience and I think ZEE5 is catering to them now.”
Apart from TVF Tripling, ZEE5 plans to stream the next seasons of shows like Pitchers, Permanent Roommates, and Humorously Yours among many others.
