So, they will always exist and thrive. But the potential of the industry can’t be capped by the number of release windows and theatres available.”
“Our initiative will dramatically increase the number of films that can be made, giving film-lovers more films to enjoy and the creative community more films to make. We firmly believe that this will generate a massive momentum for more and different kinds of films to be made in India. It’s a win-win for all,” Shankar said. In these difficult times, it is important to come up with effective and new solutions to keep yourself strongly in the market and be on your front foot always. This move by Disney+Hotstar will go a long way in helping it emerge as a market leader.
