Vishwak Sen’s Laila: Disaster in Theaters and OTT

The film opened with disastrous reviews upon theatrical release. With that, the film was unanimously rejected by audiences in theaters. After that, it arrived on OTT yesterday and started streaming on Prime Video.

Vishwak Sen’s Laila faces outright rejection on OTT too. The OTT viewers are unable to watch the entire film itself even on OTT as they felt it was torturous and unbearable. Also, most people are not even showing interest in watching this film.

That is the reason for the film not trending on Prime Video. Normally, any new releases will trend on top on the OTT platform. Sharwanand’s Manamey was released in theaters 9 months back, and it arrived on Prime Video last Friday, and it is trending at the no. 1 position.

Pawan Kalyan’s long-delayed film, Hari Hara Veera Mallu, was announced for a 28th March release recently, and the makers released two songs as well. However, there was a continuous rumor about the film that it would not arrive on the said date. Now, the latest reports suggest that Hari Hara Veera Mallu has been postponed, and the makers have locked in a new release date.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu Postponed from March

Due to delays in the shooting and post-production works, the movie was forced to be postponed. This was confirmed to the other producers unofficially, and that is why films like Mad Square and Robinhood are being released on March 28, 2025. 

Pawan Kalyan is said to have confirmed dates for both OG and Hari Hara Veera Mallu. In the next week, he has given dates for HHHVM, and in April, he provided dates for OG. With this, it is official that Hari Hara Veera Mallu has been postponed, and the makers locked a new release date.

The new release date of HHVM is 9th May. Interestingly, Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara was initially planned to arrive on the same date, but they are not releasing the film on this date due to a delay in work. Hari Hara Veera Mallu will have a big release, and it will be the solo biggie of this summer.

The team is likely to announce the new release date with a glimpse very soon. On 9th May, Nithin’s Thammudu is also planning to be released, and if Hari Hara Veera Mallu arrives, they must postpone it to another date.

Shocking: Mahesh Babu – Rajamouli’s SSMB29 shoot video leaked

0

Tollywood Director Rajamouli and Actor Mahesh Babu collaborated for their SSMB29 to fans and audience’s excitement. However, the team maintained high secrecy about the film, and no official announcement has been made yet. They didn’t even announce the details and went ahead with the shoot after the Pooja ceremony. The team, along with Mahesh Babu and Malayalam Actor Prithviraj, are busy with the current schedule in Odisha.

The team was disappointed with the pictures of both the Actors at the Airport for the schedule coming out on social media platforms. But now, to the team’s repeated disappointment, a shoot video involving Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj was leaked online a while ago. This came as a big shocker as it looked like an intense moment from the film. The video showed Mahesh Babu brought and made to sit on the knees before Prithviraj, who sat in a chair as a disabled guy.

Both the looks and characters of Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj have been leaked now because of this leaked video. This explains how difficult it is to control the leak of an outdoor shoot, even for Rajamouli.

Likewise, the team initiated damage control and appealed to fans and audiences to not share the leaked video on social media. The team may also conduct an official press meet to put all the details out. This press meet was expected to happen many months ago but got delayed for unknown reasons.

Laila, starring Vishwak Sen released recently, and it became an outright disaster at the box office. The film was rejected by the reviewers and audience alike, bashing the content and the vulgarity. The makers have announced the streaming of Laila on the OTT platform, but this was delayed.

Laila was initially expected to arrive on the OTT on Amazon Prime Video and Aha Video on 7th March. But it didn’t stream that day and is now arriving on 9th March i.e., today on Prime Video. Audiences who haven’t watched the film in theatres can now watch it on the OTT space. The team hopes big from the OTT response at least.

As said, the film completely disappointed the makers, and Vishwak Sen had to issue an official apology letter. He promised that he would take up good films and roles from now on and not cross the line of vulgarity.
