Zee Bollymovies Set To Launch On DStv From 1 March 2017

Experience the pearl of Asia.

When it comes to passion, conceit,
desperate love or bitter betrayal, no
one does it quite like Bollywood.
Their tales of joy and sorrow
intermingled with spectacular
dancing, dazzling outfits and precise
choreography have been setting
screens alight for 117 years.

MultiChoice is proud to announce
that DStv Premium , DStv Extra and
DStv Compact customers will soon
get to experience the pearl of Asia as
never before. On Wednesday 1 March
2017, Zee Bollymovies (114) – a 24-
hour, English-dubbed Bollywood-
movies-only channel will launch!
Customers will be treated to epic,
award-winning tales of the fragile
human condition. Take Rustom for
example. Naval officer Rustom Pavri
(Akshay Kumar ) has just found out
that his wife, Cynthia Pavri (Ileana
D’Cruz ), has been having an affair
with his best friend, Vikram Makhija
(Arjan Bajwa ).

While this particular story dates back
to the late 1950s, Rustom was
penned by the hugely talented Vipul
K Rawal and directed by Tinu Suresh
Desai . Desai won Most Promising
Debut Director at the recent Star
Screen Awards held in India last year,
which speaks to the caliber of
movies you can expect to see. Be
sure to catch the undulating saga of
Rustom on channel 114 on 1 March
at 18:00.

DStv already carries Zee World on
channel 166, and its success – along
with a growing appetite for all things
Bollywood – has led to this launch.
Zee Bollymovies is a channel geared
specifically for South African tastes
and we’re sure it will keep you
entertained and enthralled.
