It is known that the Tamil movie Vaa Vaathiyaar, which stars Karthi and Kriti Shetty in lead roles has been postponed from release and now, there is a new problem with it.
As per the latest news that is doing rounds on the internet, its deal with OTT is in danger. A lot of people in business are talking about it, especially since the movie was supposed to have a clear plan for how it would be shown in cinemas and online.
As per an article in Times of Indian, it is said that the makers already made Vaa Vaathiyaar already had an agreement with OTT, which included a date for the movie to come out in theaters.
But now this seems to be a problem. OTT contracts usually say when shows can be shown, when they can be seen on satellite, and how long they can stay exclusive. People might have to talk about delays again because it's a sensitive subject.
Sources claim that the digital deal hasn't been officially canceled yet, but the streaming partner is looking over the terms again because they still don't know when the movie will come out.
Sources indicate that this has made the producers realize they need to either establish a new release date soon or start the agreement over from the beginning.
A lot of people have talked about Vaa Vaathiyaar since it came out. This is largely because Karthi has had a lot of success at the box office in the past and Kriti Shetty is becoming more and more popular in South Indian cinema. People think the movie will perform well at the box office, so they also expect it will do well in theaters and on streaming sites.
The people who made the movie haven't officially mentioned anything about the postponement or the OTT contract yet. People in the business believe that further details about the digital premiere will come out once the movie's release date is confirmed.
This highlights how challenging it is for filmmakers to balance their work in theaters and on OTT in a world of entertainment that is changing swiftly.
