MUMBAI: Zee Studio is all set to feature all-time favourite films with the The Celestial Shaolin Nites beginning 24 March.

The festival kicks off with the classic trilogy The 36th Chamber of Shaolin on 24 March, Return to the 36th Chamber of Shaolin on 31 March and Disciples of the 36th Chamber on 7 April. The movies will air at 9 pm onwards every Friday.

Speaking on this initiative Zee Studio business head Neil Chakravarti says, “We are quite excited to bring these all time favourites to the Indian audience. Kung fu is a highly popular genre and we are certain these films will prove to be quite entertaining for Zee Studio viewers across the country.”

The trilogy is based on the true history of the origin, the basic learnings and the code of ethics that has permeated Shaolin for hundreds of years. Lau Kar-Leung , a ‘real master’ of kung fu film-making not only explores the depth and meaning of kung fu, but presents it on screen in a clear and entertaining way that any viewer can appreciate.

The essence of the films however is not complete without mention of Gordon Liu who has the distinction of being one of the most popular martial arts stars.
