Zee5 is taking giant strides when it comes to creating a name in the OTT market. They have been one of the most consistent players who have put out original content for its viewers regularly. While they have left no stone unturned to make their platform as diverse and exciting as possible, some of their titles have flown under the radar with the audience not having any significant knowledge about them.
Thus, below we have prepared a list of 5 underrated flicks that you should check out on Zee5
Final Call
This thriller which stars the likes of Arjun Rampal, Neeraj Kabi and Sakshi Tanwar in the lead roles is based on the novel ‘I will go with you.’ By Priya Kumar. The story revolves around a pilot who wants to take his life mid-flight, but the sequence of events doesn’t exactly go according to plan, which puts everyone’s life at risk. Does he have a Change of Heart? Will the plane land safely? Check it out for all these answers
Abhay
Abhay is another thriller which revolves around Officer Abhay Pratap Singh who has the mind of a master criminal and can go to any extent to catch the perpetrator. The series which starred the likes of Kunal Khemu in the lead got some rave review but was painfully overlooked because it released at a very early stage of the platform. Season 2 was some respite as you once again got to see Abhay take on twisted killers and psychopaths.
Kaafir
Kaafir is a Zee5 original that tells us the story of Kainaaz Akhtar who is from Pakistan- administered Kashmir but lands up on the Indian side of the land. What ensues is massive confusion as she is suspected of being a militant in the disguise of a civilian. Dia Mirza plays the lead role in this series, and her on-screen presence along with the beautifully narrated storyline and visuals is what makes it so appealing.
Rangbaaz
Rangbaaz is another gangster crime drama which is fuelled by bullets, betrayals and most importantly, hunger for ‘Power’. We realize that it sounds like another variation of ‘Mirzapur’ but the acting by the leads will keep you glued to your screens. The first season had Saqib Saleem and the Second season has Jimmy Shergill as the main stars of the show. If you love gangster dramas, this should definitely be on your list.
State of siege 26/11
Out of all the titles that we have mentioned, this may be one of the relatively known ones due to the subject that it tackles. The 26/11 attacks were a dark time in the history of the nation, and people everywhere were shocked to the core. At such dire times, the NSG commandos did their best to save the respectability of an entire nation.
Zee5 has come up with quite a lot of unique originals like Taish and Comedy Couples, but these have received their fair share of views and applause. We have tried our best to unearth some of the hidden gems for you which may have gone under the radar.
