ZEE5 Global, the world’s largest streaming platform for South Asian content, begins the new year with the exciting World Digital Premiere of Uunchai. Staying true to its promise of delivering meaningful content, the platform will bring forth the heart-warming tale of friendship with Uunchai. Produced by Rajshri Productions in association with Mahaveer Jain Films and Boundless Media, Uunchai is directed by Sooraj R Barjatya and marks his return to direction after 2015’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.

Uunchai tracks the journey of three aged friends, Amit (Amitabh Bachchan), Javed (Boman Irani) and Om (Anupam Kher) who decide to embark on a trek to the Everest Base Camp to fulfil the wish of their late friend Bhupen (Danny Dengzongpa), whose heart belonged in the Himalayas. They are joined on the trek by Shabina (Neena Gupta) who is Javed’s wife, Mala (Sarika) who happens to be the long-lost love of Bhupen and Shraddha (Parineeti Chopra) who is their tour guide. A simple trek to the Everest Base Camp turns out to be a personal, emotional, and spiritual experience as they battle their physical limitations and discover freedom.

Uunchai received good reviews at the box office and immediately connected with the audiences not just for the story line but also for the performances of the actors. With an emotionally driven script and powerful performances by all actors, the movie won hearts of audiences across all ages.
