Kantara, the recent Sandalwood sensation is rocking theaters everywhere. The movie has so far collected over 300 crores and still running. It’s OTT release is much awaited as well. Initially the makers have planned to go on OTT by 4th of November itself.
After seeing the successful run at the box office, there seems to be a change of heart in the makers. The OTT release was postponed to 18th November and rightly so. The movie has surpassed the latest releases in both Telugu and Hindi. Hence any premature release in OTT wouldn’t be a wise decision. OTT release would severely dent the walk-ins in theaters.
Kantara being a rustic folklore thriller is ideally suited for the theater experience, hence movie lovers also having little more opportunity to view it in theaters is appreciable.
Theaters are suffering with absence of good content also seeing Kantara as a bit of relief. Probably it is the only movie that is giving positive share in many states. Hence the decision of postponing Kantara to nov 18th was perfectly justifiable.
But still Kantara is not slowing at the box office even after almost 7 weeks of it’s release, so the latest news is that the makers of the movie are again in talks with the OTT streaming platform Amazon Prime Video to change the release date of OTT. The new OTT release date is said to be in november month end.
