Manish Aggarwal, Business Head, ZEE5 India said,
“After creating engaging original content in terms of films and shows, music was a natural progression for us. We couldn’t think of anybody better to partner in this endeavor than the hugely popular musician Badshah. Lockdown is our maiden foray into music and will be unlike anything the Indian audiences have seen. The show promises to keep audiences hooked to the amazing tunes created by some of the most talented artists. The format of the show is a winner, and we are sure the viewers will enjoy it like our past offerings.”
Badshah, who turns producer with the show said,
“Lockdown is a project that is very close to my heart since it’s the first offering from my production house Afterhours. The format is quite unique and fun because we have got several well-known artists to collaborate with each other and some of them had never even met before! But all of them have been quite enthusiastic and the result that has erupted out of the oneness of these Bollywood and Digital sensations is something that the audience is going to love. To be aired on ZEE5, the show is sure to be a hand’s down winner for the music aficionados.”
Gurpreet Singh, Co-Founder, One Digital Entertainment said,
“Observing the current stage of music evolution and craze, Lockdown’s format will definitely stick well with enthusiasts from almost all genres. We are honoured to be a part of Badshah and ZEE5’s vision that is sure to start a new refreshing trend in the music and entertainment industry.”
