History

Following the success of Zee Nung (Thailand) and Zee Bioskop (Indonesia), the Zee Entertainment Enterprises launched another Southeast Asian channel of Zee Entertainment Group, this time in the Philippines. Zee Sine made its first airing date in April 2016. Zee Sine is available on SkyCable (Manila, Cebu and Davao only, since October 15, 2018; primarily included in Sky Basic package as a free channel and later as an add-on pay channel since July 15, 2019), CableLink, G-Sat Digital Cable TV and Easy TV. Zee Sine was also available on Cignal from April 2016 to September 2018. It was announced that the channel ceased broadcast on March 1, 2020 at midnight.

In April 2025, Zee Sine was relaunched as a free ad-supported streaming television channel (FAST) for Samsung TV Plus exclusively in the Philippines. Alongside Zee Sine, Zee also brought its existing FAST channels, Zee One (a general entertainment channel focusing on Indian soap operas that are dubbed in English) and Zee Bollymovies (a movie channel similar to Zee Sine but dubbed in English), to the same platform.
