Here is the complete list of Telugu OTT releases along with their release dates and streaming partners.
With the Telugu Film Industry struggling to crack the theatrical market post-COVID-19, the OTT market has increased considerably. Especially the month of July, which is being reported as one of the if not the worst July Tollywood has ever seen.
OTT Releases This Month
The month started off with Pakka Commercial, starring Gopichand and Raashi Khanna. The film was heavily promoted and was marketed as an out-and-out entertainer. But post the release, the film was bashed by critics as well as audiences and the film crashed at the box office. Pakka Commercial is finally releasing on Netflix as well as Aha on 5th August.
Mathu Vadalara director fame Ritesh Rana’s Happy Birthday was released with Lavanya Tripathi in the lead role. Despite some decent performances and a wacky concept, the execution failed the team. The movie was instantly dismissed and posted poor collections. It is also releasing on Netflix on the 8th of August.
Ram Pothineni’s The Warrior suffered the same fate as the other films. An average screenplay, one-tone characters, and a routine story led to the failure of this cop-drama. Directed by N Linguswamy, the film was also a failure at the collections office. It releases on 11th August on the Disney+Hotstar platform.
Coming to the most underwhelming project of them all, according to the box office numbers, is Naga Chaitanya’s Thank You. The movie crashed on the opening day itself and was unanimously dismissed by audiences. It posted horrendous collections and has ended up as a huge loss for all parties involves. It releases on 20th August on Amazon Prime.
The latest release Ramarao On Duty might also hit the OTT route soon as the film has failed to attract audiences in theatres. The producer is in discussions for an early OTT release and is expected to stream in the month of August on the Sony Liv app.
