Zee5 Global, the streaming platform for South Asian content, has announced the addition of Cpics, a U.S. based streaming platform specialising in South Asian film and television to its aggregator platform Zee5 Add-ons.

With this association, Cpics joins Zee5 Global as its seventh partner under their add-ons offering in the US, providing consumers an array of fresh content on the platform, The Economic Times reported.

Speaking about the partnership, Archana Anand, chief business officer, Zee5 Global said, “Cpics adds into our library a pool of International South Asian content and World cinema that’s locally produced and relevant for the Global South Asian. Its availability in English also helps take South Asian content to a wider audience that appreciates stories irrespective of language.”

“The addition of Cpics to Zee5 Global Addons strengthens our content offering for the South Asian diaspora and further cements our position as the single point destination for South Asian content in the U.S,” she added.

Kavi Raz, founder and chief executive officer, Cpics said, “Cpics’ focus is on South Asian themed original content created by the South Asian talent themselves. Our motto, ‘Telling your stories’ is strongly evident in the kind of original films, series, documentaries, reality shows, comedies, and dramas that we will be bringing to you. As a bundle offering with Zee5 Global it’s an amazing opportunity for the audience to have access to star driven, strong story focused content from both the platforms.”
