Vishwak Sen's latest film, Laila, has failed to find viewers on OTT platforms, despite being aggressively promoted before its release. The film, directed by Ram Narayan, was released on Prime Video on March 9, 2025, but has struggled to gain traction on the platform. Viewers who have watched the film have criticized it as a cringe-fest, leading to a surge of memes trolling Vishwak Sen and questioning how he approved the project in the first place.
Laila's poor performance on OTT is not surprising, given its disastrous reception at the box office. The film was pulled from theaters within just three days of its release, and its failure has been widely reported. Despite this, Prime Video acquired the OTT rights for a hefty price, and the film continues to stream on the platform. However, its lackluster performance has highlighted the challenges of finding success on OTT, even with a well-promoted film.
The film's failure has also sparked speculation about the status of its digital rights. Aha had initially announced that it would stream the film on March 7, 2025, but it has yet to be released on the platform. There are reports that Aha will eventually stream the film, but the delay has raised questions about whether the OTT deal was revoked due to the film's disastrous reception.
Vishwak Sen has openly apologized to his fans for the film's poor performance, vowing to be more selective with his future projects. The film's failure has been a setback for the actor, but he remains committed to delivering high-quality content to his fans. As for Laila, it remains to be seen whether it can redeem itself on OTT in the coming days.
