In the past, Zee Studio has had many interesting properties that have helped the channel to maintain a distinctive position in the English movie genre. According to Zee Studio, Indians have a fondness for action movies and hence the channel has come up with a property like 'The Fist of Fury'.

Zee Studio was the first channel in the country to pioneer the initiative of providing the 'Now Playing' bug and English subtitles to English films in India. With the help of subtitling, the channel has widened the reach of English films to a much larger section of the Indian audience. Other English movie channels have followed suit and emulated Zee Studio after seeing the popularity of the initiative. In the future too, Zee Studio plans to come out with helpful ideas that will help the channel garner more viewers and create more stickiness.
