TIL Desk Bollywood/ Actress Richa Chadha says releasing a film on OTT or the big screen should be a producer’s choice. She adds that during the time of a pandemic, one has to ensure that movies are watched irrespective of the medium.
Films like the Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer “Gulabo Sitabo”, “Shakuntala Devi” starring Vidya Balan, Akshay Kumar-starrer “Laxmmi Bomb” and, most recently, “Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl”, are among projects that have bypassed traditional theatrical release.
“It’s the producer’s choice. It’s entirely up to the producer. If there is a date in line and the OTT ensures that a lot of people will watch the film, then obviously they will choose to go for that, because even after the theatres open it is unclear how long people will take to re-enter the theatres,” Richa, who has starred in the web-series “Inside Edge”, told.
