The producers of ‘Tuck Jagadish’ have issued a statement explaining why they chose the OTT release. They wrote a letter detailing what made them opt for a direct-OTT release bypassing the theatrical window.
The producers clearly stated that Nani was not in favor of releasing the film on the OTT platform. However, he was gracious enough to understand their problems and the prevailing situation. They thanked Nani for lending total support.
The producers also urged everyone to stand the situation and cooperate.
‘Tuck Jagadish’ is directed by Shiva Nirvana. Sahu Garapati and Harish Peddi produced the film on the Shine Screens banner. The family entertainer will premiere on Amazon Prime Video next month.
The producer’s statement…
The film was completed in December last year. We planned to release it for summer but the second wave of Covid made things difficult. Even after the second wave, things continued to be uncertain due to various issues not being under control. Moreover, it is not easy to safeguard content for so long in this digital era.
With a lot of ambiguity about when things will return to normal, we approached Nani garu and convinced him for a Non-theatrical release since there was no other option left before us. He was disappointed and reluctant a lot initially as he was particular about a theatrical release. But, he later understood the situation and was gracious enough to accept considering the problems of the producers. We sincerely thank him for his gesture. And our director too understood our problems and accepted our request.
We are passionate about film-making and always crave that entertainment on big screens. Our prime objective now is to give 100% reach to our Tuck Jagadish. We hope everyone will understand and cooperate with us.
