“We, at Zee Bangla Cinema, are very happy to achieve this significant milestone of surpassing three crore viewership and becoming the No.1 Bangla movie channel.

We started producing original content for our viewers through Zee Bangla Cinema Originals way before OTT was trending,” said Jalaluddin Mondal, chief channel officer of Zee Bangla Cinema and marketing head, East cluster, ZEE Entertainment Enterprises.
