COVID-19 Effect: Many Telugu films to release directly on Amazon, etc?

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,April 01 2020]

There is no end in sight for the ongoing troubles of the film industry. Small-time Telugu films, especially, have been hit the hardest.

In this scenario, the producers may have become desperate to make money and also save costs (delays do come with their costs). As per a few media reports, the producers of several low- and medium-budgeted Telugu movies are planning to sidestep theatrical release and put out their movies directly on streaming sites such as Amazon, Netflix, Aha, etc.

Big movies (either in terms of budget, star cast or backing of production houses) like 'V', 'Uppena', 'Aranya', 'Sreekaram' will definitely wait and won't miss the theatres.
