Kerala Theater Owners Call For A Strike Against Early OTT Releases

Kerala Theater Owners Call For A Strike Against Early OTT Releases

Kochi, June 6 - The theater owners in Kerala have decided to take a strong stand against the Mollywood filmmaker for opting for early OTT release of their movies. It has been seen with most of the Malayalam movies that despite the very good run in theaters, producers have opted for early release on digital platforms. ## The latest in the list is the all-time blockbuster "2018" which was released in theaters on May 5 and will be streaming SonyLiv from June 7, less than five weeks after the theatrical release. This has left the theater owners disappointed as this film has been running with packed houses across Kerala state. ## Now, according to the latest development, the theater owners have called for a strike on June 7 and 8 as a protest against early digital releases. This means theaters won't be functioning across the state for the next 2 days. It is said that the Kerala theaters will demand an increase in the OTT window period from 42 days to 90 days.## Meanwhile, theaters that come under FEUOK (Film Exhibitors United Organisation of Kerala) are already reportedly considering not continuing "2018" after its OTT release. It is also revealed that Kerala theatres have started to refund the ticket amounts to those who pre-booked tickets for June 7 and 8. ## It is to be noted that Kerala theater owners have been demanding a suitable OTT release window for the movies for a long time. Barring a few big hits, the Malayalam industry has been struggling to attract footfalls in cinemas due to direct OTT and short window releases. ## Stay tuned...

Kochi, May 27 - It has been three weeks since the Malayalam movie 2018 was released in theaters, and as things stand today, it is the all-time highest-grossing Malayalam movie at the worldwide box office. ## The Jude Anthany Joseph's directorial film, based on the true events of the Kerala floods in 2018, was released at a time when the Mollywood industry wasn't having a great time at the box office with back-to-back failures this year.## The makers hardly had any idea about the film's box office potential, but now, the results are there for everyone to see.

The previous highest-grossing film "Pulimurugan" finished its run at around 138 crores, but "2018" went one step ahead to open a new box office territory for Malayalam cinema. ## Meanwhile, "2018" is still performing very well and is on the verge of creating another history, this time at the Kerala box office. In 22 days, it has grossed approx. 75.10 crores in Kerala and will soon cross "Pulimurugan" (78 crores) to become the all-time highest-grossing film in the state for any language.## Stay tuned...

It will be released by E4 Entertainment in Hindi. ## While speaking about the film, Tovino Thomas previously made an emotional appeal to the distributors and Hindi audience to support Malayalam movies in order to get a bigger release. "We are a small state in the southernmost corner of India. Our pioneers have been making very good movies. Our films, however, release in a very less number of theatres".## "I wish more distributors came to release Malayalam films. We don't want them to distribute it for free or out of love for our cinema. Let them watch the film. If they like it and if they give it a proper release, it'll be great. After releasing it on OTT or after people watch it on Telegram, we often get appreciation but it's not worth it. It doesn't do good to any of us. Hence, please understand how hard it is to bring a film to cinemas", he added. ## The original version of the film was released on May 5 in just 17 days, it has grossed around 137.50 crores of collection worldwide which is the all-time highest for a Malayalam title.## Stay tuned...
