Pakistan and India share a rich history of cultural exchanges, often marked by complexities. However, recent developments suggest a potential revival of this exchange, particularly in the realm of digital streaming. Zee5, an Indian Video on Demand service launched in 2018, has been taking steps to renew cultural ties by featuring original Pakistani content under its Zindagi segment. Zee5, under the umbrella of Zee Entertainment Enterprise, is no stranger to Pakistani content. 

The parent entity had previously conceptualized Zindagi TV, a channel that successfully introduced a variety of Pakistani dramas to Indian audiences from 2014 to 2016. Pakistani content has historically garnered appreciation beyond borders, resonating well with viewers in India. Zee5's initiative, Zindagi, aims to continue this cultural exchange in the digital landscape.
