Ramam Raghavam, a film starring Dhanraj and Samuthirakani, is now streaming on ETV Win and Sun NXT platforms. The film, which marks Dhanraj's directorial debut, received mixed reviews at the box office but is expected to perform well on OTT. The film tells an emotional story of a father-son relationship and features fine performances from the lead actors. Emergency, a political drama starring Kangana Ranaut as Indira Gandhi, is also now streaming on Netflix. The film, which was released in theaters in January, explores the Emergency era in India and features an ensemble cast, including Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, and Mahima Chaudhry.
Agent, a spy thriller starring Akhil Akkineni, is finally available to stream on Sony LIV. The film, which was released in theaters in 2022, took a long time to make its way to OTT due to disputes between the producer and distributors. The film features Akhil as an aspiring RAW agent who must capture a rogue agent and save the country from a deadly virus. The film also stars Sakshi Vaidya, Vikramjeet Virk, and Sushant Singh, among others.
While Ramam Raghavam and Agent did not perform well at the box office, their OTT release may give them a new lease of life. Emergency, which received mixed reviews from critics, may also find a new audience on Netflix. The OTT release of these films may also provide a boost to the careers of the lead actors, who have been away from the spotlight for some time. Akhil Akkineni, in particular, is looking to revive his career with his next film, which is currently in production.
The OTT release of these films also highlights the changing landscape of the Indian film industry. With more and more films opting for OTT releases, the traditional theatrical model is being challenged. While some films may still thrive in theaters, others may find a new audience on OTT platforms. As the Indian film industry continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how these films perform on OTT and what the future holds for the industry.
