0

Jana Nayagan starring Vijay is currently under shoot. The film is riding high with a stunning hype. It is of that level that Jana Nayagan has bagged a bigger OTT deal than Rajinikanth starrer Coolie. At Pan India level, Rajinikanth had an upper hand over Vijay but Jana Nayagan beating Coolie in this aspect is mind blowing.

Apart from this, Coolie has a stellar cast of Nagarjuna, Upendra and Aamir Khan playing cameo roles. But still Coolie lags behind Jana Nayagan which is a solo starrer. Jana Nayagan’s digital rights are bought by Amazon Prime Video for 121 crores whereas Coolie’s rights were bought for 110 crores.

This deal is surely surprising. One of the reasons for this amazing deal could be Jana Nayagan being Vijay’s final film. The other reason will also be regarding Netflix’s policy. The OTT platform has already bagged many major films releasing this year. So they have invested heavily in Jana Nayagan which releases next year. Vijay’s stardom is working like anything in this segment.

Now it will have big theatrical business as well as big non-theatrical business. Vijay’s Jana Nayagan’s OTT rights have been sold for a record price. In the non-theatrical business, all languages’ digital rights are said to be bought by Prime Video for a sensational price of 121 Cr, which is a very big deal for the makers.
