ZeeQ rebrands channel postioning with fresh offerings

This summer, the mercury will climb a few notches higher as ZeeQ is all set to scorch the kids’ television genre with an exciting, new look. Starting today, the channel will entertain and engage children with an eclectic mix of comedy, action and art & craft shows.

ZeeQ understands that not only is the kids’ genre the largest in terms of viewership after Hindi general entertainment (GECs) and movie channels, it also needs variety, new concepts and characters.

Responding to this demand for differentiated content, ZeeQ has prepared locally-produced shows like Bandbudh aur Budbak, (which revolves around two 10-year-old school boys who always land in trouble) Pyaar Mohabbat Happy Lucky (which follows the escapades of Happy and Lucky, who are polar opposites and find themselves in the middle of hilarious quarrels) and The Art Room (Parents and children can explore the world of creativity and unbridled imagination that offer a balanced mix of entertainment and learning).

For some adrenaline rush, the channel has action-packed shows like Burka Avenger (narrates the story of Jiya, a mild-mannered teacher, who has a secret weapon: Martial arts. Jiya wears a burka to hide her identity as she fights villains who want to shut down the girls’ school where she works), He ManShaktiman packaged together in the Mega Action Band. This band will be offered in Telugu as well, in addition to Hindi and English.

ZeeQ brand and communications head Ashwin Sashital said: ZeeQ is taking a step further by revamping the look, feel and positioning of the channel. The challenge lies in expanding the audience base, something we believe can be done with the new line-up. We plan to keep our audience engaged and entertained with exciting new stories, creative activities and action-packed adventures. We look forward to a great start with our rebranding campaign.”

Kids’ is number three priority genre in Indian television and has a high viewership not only among children, but parents as well. Keeping this strategic factor in mind, ZeeQ is launching new programmes targeting 4-14 SEC ABC.

ZeeQ is undertaking a 360 degree promotion campaign in key metro cities and Hindi speaking markets. The channel has started the rebranding with an extensive TV Campaign on Zee network and other select channels. As part of the audience outreach programme, ZeeQ will organise on-ground activities and school contact programmes based on the new shows. The channel is partnering with leading media houses for focused ‘Above the Line’ and ‘Below the Line’ promotional activities.
