The recent film Viswam, starring Gopichand and directed by Srinu Vaitla, has faced a familiar challenge at the box office despite high hopes and the creators’ promises of a renewed approach. Gopichand and Vaitla actively promoted the film with Vaitla notably stating, “I have changed, so will my film’s result,” suggesting a departure from his previous style, particularly in comedy. However, despite some enhanced comedy and strong action scenes, the film struggled to make a substantial impact.

After its theatrical release on October 11 for Dussehra, Viswam is now set to arrive on Amazon Prime Video during the Diwali holiday weekend. The platform secured the streaming rights for ₹12 crores, and an official announcement is anticipated soon.

As seen with similar films, Viswam may find a more receptive audience in the OTT space, where the convenience of streaming often attracts viewers who might have missed it in theaters. Only time will reveal if Viswam resonates better with the OTT audience than it did on the big screen.
