Producer Suresh Babu has stated that he has not yet finalized a deal with any OTT Drushyam 2 release yet. He said that he will take a call after assessing the situation in a few days and depending on the Covid second wave, he will take the final call. He further added theatrical release is also pretty much a possibility.
Recently it was reported that Drushyam 2 received a great deal from an OTT platform for an exclusive release. The unit is now considering various options before releasing it directly digitally. This seems to be a good decision considering the Covid second wave and the restrictions on release and theatre capacity.
Incidentally, Mohanlal’s Drishyam 2 also release directly on Amazon Prime back in February. If Drushyam 2 releases directly on OTT, Venkatesh would become the first TFI biggie to have done so. This might set a good precedent for others considering the current situation.
