0

Laila, Vishwak Sen’s latest film, was released on this Valentine’s Day, and it ended up as a big failure, and the actor faced a lot of criticism as well. On the opening day itself, the film could not get decent collections, and now, Laila is set for its OTT premiere.

Vishwak Sen’s Laila arriving on OTT

The film is set to stream on 7th March on Aha. Due to bad reviews, audiences did not show much interest in going to the theaters, and after the OTT release, it might receive more trolls and criticism for its content. Vishwak Sen’s Laila is set for its OTT premiere.

On 7th March, multiple films are coming to the digital field. Along with Laila, 3 blockbuster films are streaming on OTT. Tamil film Kudumbasthan, Malayalam film Rekha Chitram, and Naga Chaitanya – Sai Pallavi’s Thandel will be available for streaming on OTT.

Big Backlash against Vishwak Sen because of Laila

Movies becoming big flops is a normal thing for any hero. But Vishwak Sen received unanimous criticism for the content in the film, and he penned a letter and stated that this kind of mistake will not be repeated in the future.

Marco banned: No TV or OTT screening

0

Marco starring Unni Mukundan became a sensational blockbuster in Mollywood recently. The film grossed more than 100 crores worldwide and developed a cult following on the social media platforms for its bold depiction of violent scenes. Audience were also shocked to see the number of violent scenes the film contained. The film is on track to get the beating for the same reason.

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has banned Marco and also denied permission to screen it on TV Channels. The Application for the satellite permission has been rejected likewise. A letter has also been sent to the Central Government that the OTT Screening of the film be stopped.

This is said to be because of the extreme violent scenes in the film and CBFC is also learned to set guidelines about the mature and the violence content in the films. This is really a shock to the team of Marco who expected a big boost from the OTT audiences to plan for a sequel. But they have landed in a big trouble now.

Sony LIV bought the digital rights of the film and has also been streaming it for the past 3 weeks. The response from the OTT audience is mixed and not as expected. We need to see how the team acts on this decision by the CBFC.

After a decent performance in its theatrical release, Balakrishna’s Daaku Maharaaj is having a phenomenal response upon its digital release. The film was released in theaters this Sankranthi, and though it performed well, it could not get the expected big result. However, the OTT release resulted in a blockbuster success, as Daaku Maharaaj trends in 13 countries on Netflix.

Daaku Maharaaj on Netflix: Sensational Response

In the 1st week itself, the action drama, directed by Bobby, trended globally in 5th position. Now, in its 2nd week, Daauku is trending at the 7th position, and it is continuing global trends for 2 weeks. For a film from a senior hero, this is definitely a massive achievement. In the 1st Week, the film clocked 2.4M Views [17Feb -23 Feb], while the 2nd Week it clocked 2.6M Views[24 Feb–2 Mar].

The film is getting a massive response from all language audiences, which we see very rarely for Balayya’s films. The fans and the ones who liked the film are currently sharing the best scenes from the film as Balakrishna’s Daaku Maharaaj trends in 13 countries on Netflix.

If we observe, Daaku Maharaaj’s story is not new, but the way director Bobby presented it with the help of exceptional visuals combined with mass moments made it an engaging action drama.

0

In recent days, most of the films are struggling to lock the digital business. Even the big stars and big production houses are failing to achieve the expected/quoted numbers and struggling massively to lock the digital deals. However, the popular OTT giant, Netflix, backs Nani in a big way.

Netflix and Nani – A Blockbuster Combination

Nani’s films are locking the digital deals even before going on sets. From Shyam Singa Roy to the latest Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, all of Nani’s recent releases’ rights have been bought by Netflix, and his next film, HIT 3, has its digital rights for all languages also bought by the popular streaming platform.

Paradise – Court and Chiru Odela Cinema will also arrive on Netflix

The Paradise, the second film under the combination of Nani and Srikanth Odela, also cracked the digital deal with Netflix for a huge price. Not only Nani’s lead films but even his production films are grabbed by Netflix. Court, the upcoming legal drama starring Priyadarshi and produced by Wall Poster Cinema, will also arrive on Netflix, as the digital rights of the film were bought long ago. 

As said above, recently, the small films are struggling big time to lock non-theatrical deals, but as Nani is involved with the film, Court, it had a direct deal. Chiranjeevi and Srikanth Odela are combining hands for a film. This film is presented by Nani. Netflix will mostly grab the digital rights for this biggie as well. Popular OTT Giant Netflix backs Nani in a big way.

Court – State Vs A Nobody | Trailer Announcement (The Adjournment) | In Cinemas On March 14th

The Judgement Factor Working in Favor of Nani

Netflix is going all over for Nani wherever his name is involved, and they are getting those rights because of his star power and his judgment as well. Definitely he is one of the most promising heroes for producers, as his films have good deals in all aspects. 

Nani’s films are creating a massive viewership for Netflix in all languages, and it is a win-win situation for Nani and Netflix at the end of the day.

Game Changer Hindi Streaming Details

0

Game Changer, the big-budget film starring Ram Charan and directed by Shankar, arrived in theaters after facing many obstacles. It was released in theaters worldwide this January 10th and failed to impress and emerged as a big failure in all languages. The political action drama is already streaming on OTT in all South Indian languages, and Game Changer Hindi streaming details are out now.

Game Changer: A Big Failure

With a breakeven target of 450 Cr gross, GC ended up collecting around 195 Cr gross in the full run. It resulted in a big loss venture for all parties involved and a heavy loss venture for producer Dil Raju.

The film’s South Indian language digital rights are with Prime Video for a big price, and it arrived on the popular OTT platform within 4 weeks for streaming. Ram Charan’s Game Changer Hindi streaming details are out now. 

The Hindi version’s streaming rights are with ZEE5, and they waited for a long time because of the 8-week theatrical window, and the film will be arriving this 7th March on ZEE5 in Hindi. As it involves big names, the Hindi audiences are eagerly awaiting the film’s OTT release.

Mazaka: Early OTT Release?

0

There were a lot of expectations on Mazaka as it was a commercial entertainer, and it was expected to give a big break for Sundeep Kishan. The director, Trinadha Rao Nakkina’s brand image also raised the anticipation among trade. However, Mazaka failed to perform at least decently. The latest reports suggest that Mazaka is opting for an early OTT release.

Mazaka: Huge Loss Venture at the Box Office

The film was made on a massive budget of 30 Cr with Hasya Movies, AK Entertainments, and ZEE Studios collaboration, and it did good business theatrically. It was released on Maha Shivaratri day with early premieres. Even though it opened with decent reviews and WOM, the film failed to work at the box office. The theatrical breakeven target was 25 Cr gross, but the film collected around 10 Cr gross in the 1st week and can be considered as the final collections for the film.

Sundeep Kishan’s Mazaka to arrive on OTT soon

With this, the film is expected to make its digital debut much earlier than expected. As ZEE Studios is directly involved in the film’s production, they put in a very big amount. So, to compensate for this, it is likely to stream early to get big viewership. So, it is certain that Sundeep Kishan’s Mazaka is opting for an early OTT release.

ZEE5: Same Plan for Mazaka like Sankranthiki Vasthunam?

Normally, Telugu films maintain a 4-week theatrical window, but with a bad result at the box office, Mazaka is expected to arrive on OTT in less than 3 weeks, and ZEE5, recently, with Sankranthiki Vasthunam, started screening television premieres and OTT premieres at the same time.

Even for Mazaka, the ZEE group also has satellite rights along with digital rights, so they might choose the same option as Sankranthiki Vasthunnam. However, Venkatesh and Anil Ravipudi’s film was a huge blockbuster, and the viewers waited for more than 6 weeks to watch it. But Mazaka is a failure, so it is expected to arrive very soon.
