The most controversial film of the year, The Kerala Story, is struggling to find OTT buyers and has yet to find any.
Director Sudipto Sen told in an interview that he was unable to get any offer from any digital media platform. He believes that the film industry has ganged up against him.
Sen said: “We are yet to get a suitable offer from any OTT platform for The Kerala Story.”
“We are still waiting for a good, viable deal from any major OTT platform. But so far, we have not received any offer worth considering. It seems the film industry is ready to punish us. It’s done.
According to JEE News, the director of The Kerala Story feels that the box office success of his film has angered certain sections of the industry, which is why they have now come together to punish them.
“Our box office success has affected many parts of the film industry. We feel that a section of the entertainment industry has united to punish us for our success,” added Sen.
Adah Sharma starrer The Kerala Story was banned in some states in India because its plot involved ISIS and religion. Amidst all the bans and controversies, the film managed to premiere on May 5. Not only this, it became the first female-centric film to cross the Rs 200 crore mark.
