Step-by-step solution

6 films − Sanju, Padmavat, Rajneeti, Dangal, Tubelight and Dabang were telecasted on 6 movie channels viz. Sony Max, Star Gold, & Zee Cinema, UTV Movies, &pictures and B4U movies such that only one film was telecasted on one channel.

Which film was telecasted on Zee Cinema?

Statement I:& Either Tubelight or Rajneeti was telecasted on B4U movies. The movie name that has exactly two vowels was telecasted on Zee Cinema. Dabang was telecasted on Star Gold.

Statement II:& Padmavat was telecasted on Sony Max.& The movie whose name starts wth ‘D’ was telecasted on UTV movies. Rajneeti was neither telecasted on Zee Cinema nor on Star Gold.

Statement III:& Sanju was not telecasted on B4U movies. Dangal was telecasted on the channel whose name has the word ‘movies’ in it. Tubelight was telecasted on &pictures.

Statement I and II:

The only movie after Dabang that starts with letter ‘D’ is Bangal, so Danagl was telecasted on UTV movies.

As Rajneeti was not telecasted on Zee Cinema, so the only channel left for it is &pictures in Case1. And therefore the only left movies i.e. Sanju was telecasted on Zee Cinema.

The movie names that has exactly two vowels are − Sanju, Dabang and Dangal.

Dabang and Dangal have already telecasted on other channels, so the only left movies is Sanju to be telecasted on Zee Cinema in Case 2 as well.

Therefore data in statement I and II is sufficient to answer the question.
