The video streaming platform Zee 5 is back with a Pankaj Tripathi starrer titled 'Kaagaz', set to premiere on 7th January 2021. Beyond the cruising metro and blazing neon lights of cosmopolitan, 'Kaagaz' will storm back to the 'other' side of India and bring a real story to the forefront. A satirical comedy based in a small village in UP, the story is about a man who was declared dead on official papers and will wheel around his journey to prove himself alive. It will mock a sarcastic commentary on the flawed system of land resources in India and the struggle of a common man that comes tailing with it. A humorous take with Pankaj Tripathi as Bharat Lal with Monal Gajjar, Mita Vashisht, Amar Upadhyay & Satish Kaushik in pivotal roles.

Now, it's just a click away for the audiences. Block your date for 7th January 2021."
