Yes, you read that right! As per a report in a news portal, the studios as well as the web streaming platform are actively in talks to decide the future course of action for the film. This will reportedly be the first time a film will release theatrically after this OTT premiere, due to which a lot of planning is going on. The report states that if everything happens in the right place, it will change the way people look at content for the web space, and even stop seeing the medium as a threat.
Sharing his thoughts on this development, director Apoorva Singh Karki Said that at the moment, the discussion is going on and it is an internal conversation between the streaming platform and the studio. While the decision is in his hands, it is something he is really looking forward to.
Elaborating further, Karky said that this is an exciting sign as such discussions are happening for the first time since people have seen the growth of the streaming space amid the pandemic. The filmmaker said that with the film now opening in theatres, it will take the message to a wider audience, which is the most important thing for a director.
The courtroom drama is inspired by true events, with Bajpayee playing a lawyer on a quest to bring justice to girls who were wronged by a religious leader.
