Uttar Pradesh Kabaddi League (UPKL) Season 2 will broadcast on Zee Bollywood, &Pictures HD and Anmol Cinema 2, and stream on ZEE5.
Earlier, Zee Entertainment Enterprises’ new initiatives arm Zee Sports and SJ Uplift Kabaddi’s Uttar Pradesh Kabaddi League (UPKL) had a three-year strategic broadcast partnership across TV and Digital.
Starting from December 24, 2025, UPKL Season 2 will feature commentary in Hindi. The season will span 69 matches across 18 days.
The league is promoted by brand ambassador Rahul Chaudhari.
Bhavesh Janavlekar, Business Head – Zee Sports, Zee Entertainment Enterprises, said, “Z’s sports strategy is anchored on championing indigenous sports, and UPKL offers a strong opportunity to elevate regional excellence to the national stage. Kabaddi holds a deep emotional resonance in Indian households, and through the extensive reach of these channels airing the league, we look forward to further strengthening this connection. With the league’s rising popularity and its highly engaged, diverse fan base, UPKL offers strong value for brands. We remain committed to elevating this league and ensuring its long-term success.”
Sambhav Jain, Founder & Director, SJ Uplift Kabaddi, said, “Having UPKL broadcast across three channels this season, along with the addition of OTT, significantly expands the league’s reach. This distribution allows us to connect with viewers across different regions and age groups. With daily matches scheduled between 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., audiences now have far greater access to the action, whether on television or digitally. We see this as an important step in strengthening the league’s visibility and ensuring that more households across the country can experience UPKL.”
