Mumbai: Zee Studio has partnered with Palador Pictures to showcase 26 of the latter’s acclaimed films on their channel.
Beginning in April on Sundays, this exclusive property will showcase 26 films made by master filmmakers like Ingmar Bergman, Akira Kurosawa, Wong Kar-Wai, Francois Truffaut, Krzysztof Kieslowski and Jim Jarmusch.
Zee Studio business head Neil Chakravarti said, “We were the first channel to consistently showcase World Cinema and our most recent endeavor, the Satyajit Ray festival last December, was received very well by our viewers. The team at Zee Studio has always worked hard to keep up with viewers’ tastes and to innovate and stay true to our vision of sourcing and bringing the best movies to Indian viewers.”
Palador co-founder and joint MD Mohan Polamar says, “Palador’s quest is to bring the language of cinema into India. Our catalogue contains the works of cinema’s founding fathers and their prodigies. Our focus is to generate popularity to this content and therefore our philosophy is to be agnostic to the medium and partner. We have a large body of content and we will work untiringly to popularize the same.”
