Each episode focuses on a distinct period or theme, offering viewers a comprehensive understanding of the movement’s evolution across the years.
“For Indian American families and the wider South Asian community in the U.S., staying connected to India’s history and cultural roots is deeply meaningful,” said Harish Goyal, Territory Head – Americas, Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd. “With Kesariya@100, ZEE5 is proud to bring a thoughtfully researched documentary that helps our diaspora audiences engage with an important chapter of India’s socio-cultural journey.

Blending historic footage, expert insights, on-ground accounts, and cinematic recreations, the series presents complex moments of India’s past in a format accessible to today’s viewers. Whether it’s disaster relief during floods, uniting spiritual leaders in times of division, or quietly building schools and health centers in remote villages-this is a story of quiet determination, resilience, and unwavering patriotism.
Kesariya@100 invites viewers to witness a century of service, not as a distant history lesson, but as a living legacy still unfolding today.
