‘A Flying Jatt’ Zee Cinema premiere on 22 October
MUMBAI: India’s first flying superhero – A Flying Jatt, is all set for its World Television Premiere on The World’s Largest Theatre for Hindi Movies- Zee Cinema on Saturday, 22nd October, at 8 PM. Directed by Remo D’Souza, the film starring Tiger Shroff and Jacqueline Fernandez stands out from all superhero flicks made so far. A quirky amalgam of action and humor, the film also delivers an important social message for our younger generation.
Aman (Tiger Shroff) a martial arts teacher in a school constantly strives for the attention of his students. He fumbles and bumbles, behaves like a little boy around his formidable mother Bebe (Amrita singh) and is all shy and tongue-tied around his female colleague Kirti (Jacqueline Fernandez). One day, when Aman is trying to save his beloved land that houses a sacred tree from the clutches of corrupt businessman Malhotra (Kay Kay Menon), fate shines upon him. Destiny makes him a common man’s superhero, the ‘Flying Jatt’. In order to save the day, he also challenges super villain Raka (WWE wrestler Nathan Jones) in a dangerous battle. Bestowed not only with incredible superpower, Flying Jatt also displays some jaw-dropping martial art kicks. A superhero blessed with killer dance moves, the film also features the digital rage chart-buster song ‘Beat Pe Booty’.
D’Souza said “Making Flying Jatt has been an overwhelming experience. I have always been inspired by Superheroes and the idea behind the film was to give India its first Desi Superhero which hopefully we have been able to. I am happy that Zee Cinema is premiering the movie. This would help A Flying Jatt reach out to wider masses and entertain more.”

New genre-led channels bring comedy, drama, horror, classics and South films to Smart TVs.
MUMBAI: Zee5 just turned Samsung Smart TVs into a free entertainment buffet because when premium content costs nothing, even the remote control starts smiling. Zee5 has launched five curated free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channels on Samsung TV Plus India, making high-quality, genre-specific entertainment available subscription-free to millions of Samsung Smart TV owners across the country.
The five channels now live are:
Zee Comedy Nation – Popular comedy shows and movies

ZEE South Flix – High-energy South Indian films dubbed in Hindi
All content is drawn from Zee5’s extensive library and programmed in a lean-back, always-on format ideal for large-screen viewing. This launch strengthens Zee5’s Connected TV strategy at a time when 64 per cent of its premium content watch time already comes from connected devices.
Zee5 chief business officer Siju Prabhakaran said, “At Zee5, we believe accessibility and scale will define the next phase of digital entertainment growth in India. Our presence on Samsung TV Plus strengthens our Connected TV strategy, enabling viewers to discover curated, genre-led content in a seamless, free, and premium environment.”
Samsung TV Plus India head of partnerships Kunal Mehta added, “Local partnerships are at the heart of how we grow Samsung TV Plus in India. Zee Entertainment is one of India’s most iconic media brands, and bringing their channels to our service means millions more Samsung Smart TV owners can enjoy premium local content, subscription-free.”
The channels are available directly through the pre-installed Samsung TV Plus app with no login or subscription required. This marks another milestone in Zee5’s CTV expansion and builds on its growing international presence, with Zee channels already available on Samsung TV Plus across Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
In a streaming world where paywalls often block the fun, Zee5 and Samsung have quietly opened the gates, proving that sometimes the best things in life (and on your TV) really are free especially when they come with a side of comedy, drama, horror, classics and South Indian blockbuster energy.
