ZEE5 Global’s newest espionage drama, Mukhbir, brings a forgotten slice of history

India, through the course of history, has seen the birth of numerous patriots and revolutionaries. From the foot soldiers of the freedom movement to those fighting the frontlines at each war, they have strived to keep the nation’s flag flying high. In recent times too, our national heroes have looked danger in the eye and, with unflinching valour, fought for national safety. Cinema and more recently, the OTT space have become a potent medium for bringing to the fore stories from the lost pages of history to appeal to the collective consciousness of the viewers. ZEE5 Global with its recently released spy thriller drama, Mukhbir – The Story of a Spy, brings one such fascinating story about a forgotten hero from the annals of Indian history.

The drama, based on the aftermath of the India-Pak war, revolves around a highly trained Indian secret agent who enters Pakistan on a mission to gather crucial intelligence. His mission is to stop Pakistan from launching an attack against India. Directed by Shivam Nair and Jayprad Desai, the espionage thriller inspired by true events stars Prakash Raj and Adil Hussain in pivotal roles. The series has struck a chord with viewers for crafting a brilliant story about an unsung hero and the sacrifices he made for his country.

Archana Anand, Chief Business Officer, ZEE5 Global said, “Pioneering storytelling has always been the trademark of ZEE5 Global. We always look to bring our viewers stories with a high emotional connect that not only resonates with them but also keep them strongly connected to their roots. With Mukhbir we are proud to now expand our library and provide our viewers with superlative content. ”

Patriotic films and dramas are known to spark love for the country and encourage us to stand by her no matter the circumstance. The growing popularity of this genre has established it as one of the most-watched categories all over the world. Besides the much awaited title Mukhbir, ZEE5 Global, has also experienced an increase in interest of its subscribers in stories of patriots and soldiers like Rashtra Kavach Om, State of Siege: Temple Attack, Uri: The Surgical Strike, Shaurya and others. It is the absolute process of instilling a feeling of nationality in the hearts of viewers that makes this genre so popular.
