'Zoom Review Show' crosses 200-episode milestone

September 27, 2013:

publive-image'The Zoom Review Show' completes its identity as the home to all things Bollywood by serving reviews of tinsel town's latest releases. Hosted by journalist and noted Bollywood expert Omar Qureshi, Zoom's Editor-in-Chief, the show's 200th episode aired at 7.30 PM on September 20, 2013. Launched in 2009, the most viewed movie review show on TV has now added a cherry to the cake by also being the longest running one.

Zoom understands that the regular movie-goer is basically keen on knowing whether a movie is going to be value for money or not. The star-cast of the movie, their performances, its musical score, its item numbers, its most impactful scenes, an interesting or funny screenplay, the quality of its visuals are some of the many factors that come together in determining its entertainment value. Rather than giving a critical discourse about a movie, 'The zoOm Review Show' sets things into perspective by breaking down the movie for the audience around these aspects and gives a very relatable and believable analysis.

Backed by his experience of more than 25 years, Qureshi is great at gauging the entertainment value of a movie and whether it is line with the pulse of the young audience – the biggest audience segment at the box office. For instance, while his peers on other channels gave a thumbs-down to 'Rowdy Rathore' and 'Bol Bachchan', Qureshi rated both the movies as 'Very Good'. Both went on to become one of the biggest releases of the year, each grossing over Rs 100 crore and propelling the careers of Akshay Kumar and Abhishek Bachchan.

Not just the depth, but also the width of its reviews has been a strong point of 'The Zoom Review Show'. Looking beyond Bollywood releases, the show also reviews the big Hollywood releases of the week. Acknowledging the importance of music in a Bollywood film, 'The Zoom Review Show' also features a dedicated section where the music of upcoming releases is reviewed. For any Bollywood enthusiast, it is the first and only complete review show on TV.

No wonder then that the show is consistently the most watched review show on TV compared to any other review show across Bollywood, news, entertainment and lifestyle channels.

The zoOm Review Show is also widely popular among the stars of the industry as well. On the completion of its 200th episode, congratulatory messages from the most loved stars of Bollywood poured in. Hrithik Roshan said: “My huge congratulations to Omar Qureshi and Zoom for 200th episode of 'The zoOm Review Show'. All the best guys, more success to you.”
