Cabaret, a new original Hindi film starring actress Richa Chadda, is now streaming on Indian over-the-top (OTT) platform ZEE5 as part of its New Year content offer.

Directed by Kaustav Narayan Niyogi, the cast of the romantic musical also includes Gulshan Devaiah, S. Sreesanth, and Gulshan Grover. It features songs by Usha Uthup, Sunidhi Chauhan and Neeti Mohan.

“Cabaret is a movie that celebrates dance and love in the most unique way possible. We are thrilled about premiering it on a digital ZEE5 and are sure that their phenomenal reach will take Cabaret to a much larger audience who are seeking cutting-edge content on the go,” said producer Pooja Bhatt.

The film’s star Richa Chadda (pictured) said: “Cabaret has been one of my most challenging roles to date and I am excited that the film is being released on a digital platform like ZEE5. Given the musical format and the fresh concept, it will surely resonate with the ZEE5 audience who enjoys watching exciting and edgy content.”

ZEE5 India business head Manish Aggarwal calls Cabaret “an exceptional love story” adding that Zee’s OTT platform expects to emulate the “great success” enjoyed by its first original Hindi film Tigers in India and abroad. “With Pooja Bhatt’s conviction in the concept and Richa Chadda’s mind-blowing performance, this film will be the most looked forward to in 2019,” said Aggarwal.
