Netizens all praise for ZEE5 Original BREAK POINT!

They killed it on the court while millions watched them, conquering one game after the next, Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi seemed almost indestructible – BREAK POINT, the story of India’s most loved sporting pair now reveals their intriguing on and off-court dynamics as the 7-part series is out now on ZEE5.

While the trailer of the highly anticipated series created ripples giving audiences a sneak-peak of everything in store, BREAK POINT, jointly directed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Nitesh Tiwari amassed rave reviews from audiences and critics.
