Prithviraj, Nayanthara-starrer Gold released on OTT

Alphonse Puthren’s return film, Gold, is now officially available to stream on Amazon Prime Video for his followers. On December 29 at 12 am, the Prithviraj Sukumaran comedy film debuted on the streaming service.

It was anticipated that the Malayalam and Tamil versions of the movie will start streaming at the same time on the OTT service. The Tamil translation, however, currently looks to be delayed. Following the success of his Tamil Nadu-set films Neram and Premam, Alphonse has a sizable fan base there as well.

When Gold was first released in theatres, its creators had to deal with a number of challenges. The movie was originally scheduled to premiere in theatres in September, around the time of the Onam festival. Alphonse, however, was dissatisfied with the outcome, thus this was pushed. The cast and director then left for additional shooting.

The film was released on December 1 in theatres in Kerala. A simultaneous release in both Malayalam and Tamil was once more the idea, but it was abandoned. The Tamil version of the film was further delayed, while the Malayalam release went off without a hitch. The movie’s Tamil dubbing was delayed, according to team sources, because the finished product wasn’t handed to the producers until the last week of November.

Only on December 16 did the Tamil version finally arrive in theatres. The Tamil-dubbed version of Gold’s release could be postponed due to the two-week window before its OTT release. However, January 2023 is targeted for the publication of the Tamil version.

A comedy called Gold, which is made by Prithviraj Productions and Magic Frames, centers around a pickup truck that has been loaded with stolen gold and is later discovered abandoned in front of the protagonist’s home. The story of the movie, which also stars Nayanthara, Baburaj, Jagadish, Roshan Mathew, Chemban Vinod Jose, Deepthi Sati, Vinay Forrt, Sharafudheen, and Krishna Sankar, centers on how he decides to take advantage of the opportunity.
