Directed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and husband Nitesh Tiwari, Break Point is a 7-part series based on the iconic on-court partnership between Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi and their off-court lives. Excited about the upcoming project, according to ANI, Leander Paes said, "I enjoyed this walk down memory lane shooting for 'BREAK POINT' ...While Mahesh and my on-court partnership was widely covered, and our off-court chemistry was largely speculated. This is the first time that our fans will get to see and hear it all, first-hand. Mahesh and I worked really hard to put India on top of world tennis and we are glad that we are getting a chance to present our story to the world, like never before. Enjoy our journey."

Mahesh Bhupathi, too, talked about reliving his journey through Break Point and said that said how their fans will get to know the other side of the game where the players sweat blood to achieve the mark. "It is no secret that I am reserved when it comes to communicating, so this is a big step for me to relive the journey and put it all out there in the most candid and honest manner. But, at the same time, I am happy that our fans will get to see our journey which was a mix of sweat, perseverance, brotherhood, and at times blood and tears as well. This is surely going to be a treat for all," he opined.

Ashwiny shared the poster on Instagram and wrote, “They put Indian tennis on the map but walked away when they had the world at their feet. It’s time to finally hear the untold story of @mbhupathi and @leanderpaes #Breakpoint #ComingSoon only on #ZEE5.” The directors have also shared their experience working with veteran players. "It's great to bring to screen a series like this... Working with icons like Mahesh Bhupathi and Leander Paes has been surreal and to bring their untold story to screen is something that we will cherish forever," Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Nitesh Tiwari said in a joint statement. Break Point is ZEE5's original series.
