Naga Chaitanya’s “Bangarraju” will have an early OTT release

Nagarjuna‘s Bangarraju is doing an amazing start at the box office. Bangarraju is backed by Nagarjuna himself under his banner Annapurna Studios in association with Zee Studios. Reportedly Zee Studios has also bagged the post-theatrical digital rights of the film and it will be premiered on the homegrown streaming platform Zee 5 after 2 weeks of its theatrical release. As a rule, ZEE5 debuts Telugu films half a month post-dramatic release. In any case, that probably won’t be the situation with Bangarraju. We are hearing that ZEE5 plans to make Bangarraju accessible for streaming any time after the Republic Day – 26 Jan. With theaters running with50 % occupancy and the footfalls at theaters prone to go down taking into account Covid, an early OTT release is particularly on cards. Assuming things become all-good, Bangarraju may be made accessible for spilling on ZEE5 from the 4th of February. Bangarraju could well be ZEE5’s first early OTT release in Telugu film.
