Ram pours his thoughts on burning topic- Direct OTT Release

The young and energetic actor Ram Pothineni is currently working for his upcoming action-drama Red which is a remake of Tamil film Thadam, in which the actor will make his screen presence in a dual role.  iSmart Shankar fame Ram Pothineni has shared his thoughts on the topic of films getting released on OTT platforms directly bypassing theatrical release. It is known news that some Bollywood, Tamil, and Malayalam producers had taken a bold step to release the movies on the OTT platform whereas the Telugu producers are still hesitating to strike the deal with OTT giants.

With the theaters shut due to the lockdown, the producers are willing to sell their movies to leading OTT platforms to recover their investments. This move is being criticized heavily by exhibition bodies across the country. Yesterday night, Ram Pothineni whose film ‘Red’ was rumored to have been sold to an OTT platform, took to Twitter and shared his views on this burring topic- direct OTT release.

Ram Pothineni said, “The thing about the Movie Industry is, it’s a passion for a few, A Business for most and a Gamble for the rest.”
