Recently released films, Thudarum starring Mohanlal and Tourist Family starring Sasi Kumar and Simran, rocked the box office. Both became surprising hits, shocking the trade analysts. According to the agreements, these films were to be streamed this week, but with the exceptional performance in the theatres, the OTT arrival has been halted for now.
Leading OTT Giant, JioHotstar, acquired the OTT rights of both films. The Producers of both films are learnt to have contacted the OTT team and requested to allow the theatrical screening of the film for a few more weeks. As per the plan, Thudarum should be streaming today and Tourist Family will have to arrive on May 28th.
Since both films are raking in good revenue in the theatres, the makers expect more to pump in. If all goes well, Thudarum and Tourist Family will be streamed on JioHotstar only at the beginning of June. Till then, there is no stopping for either film. Thudarum has already grossed nearly 225 crores worldwide, and Tourist Family is nearing the 75 crores gross mark.
