When it comes to some of the most successful tennis stars in India, the legendary name of Leander Paes has to be the one to strike one's mind first. Along with him, his long-time partner Mahesh Bhupathi also attained top heights with him in the doubles circuit.

While it has been quite some time since the pair has moved on, there's no denying that it remains the most successful Indian pair to date. Consequently, it makes sense to depict their life journey and storey on the big screen.

In the same light, a web series called 'BREAKPOINT' would be premiering soon on ZEE5, directed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Nitesh Tiwari. The series is expected to present their bromance to their break-up.

The duo happened to have won eight Grand Slam doubles titles, dominating world tennis for quite some time. As a result, they have inspired a lot of upcoming young budding tennis stars from India.

The duo was the first to reach all four Slam finals in 1999, for the first time since 1952. However, what made such a successful pair eventually part ways is a mystery unknown, and fans would get to see it on ZEE5 soon enough.

Announcing the same, Ashwiny had stated on social media, "I'm honoured and filled with immense gratitude to play my part in bringing this incredible story of the legendary pair of @leanderpaes and @mbhupathi to the world along with @niteshtiwari22 on #ZEE5."
