Whopping amount for Laal Singh Chaddha OTT rights & a condition
on Jul 30, 2022
Aamir Khan, Bollywood's Mr. Perfect, needs no introduction. As an actor, producer, and director, he worked in a variety of capacities and carved out a distinct identity in the Bollywood industry. He is consistently at the forefront of making innovative and heartwarming films.
Currently, 'Laal Singh Chaddha,' in which he acted, falls within this category. The film, directed by Advait Chandan, stars Naga Chaitanya in a pivotal role. The promotional images and trailer for the film that have already been released have raised tremendous anticipation for the flick.
Chiranjeevi presents the film in Telugu. The film, which is set in the background of a comedy drama, is set to be released in India on August 11th. The producers are providing updates in this order.
Leading OTT company Netflix has acquired the streaming rights to 'Laal Singh Chaddha.' However, according to Bollywood sources, Netflix has purchased the film streaming rights in all languages for around 160 crores.
Furthermore, six months after its theatrical release, the film will be available digitally. Not sure how much of this is true, but it is astonishing that Netflix paid such a high price for OTT rights.
According to this calculation, the whole budget recovery of this film is only feasible with OTT rights. This film is a remake of the Hollywood classic 'Forrest Gump.' Kareena Kapoor played the heroine opposite Aamir Khan. Aamir Khan is producing the film himself in collaboration with Viacom18 Studios.
