Certain films may perform well in theaters but prove to be disastrous once they are available on OTT platforms. Films like "The Kashmir Files" and "KGF2" are examples of this phenomenon.
However, some films that were completely ignored in theaters may prove to be successful on OTT platforms.
According to an insider related to an OTT platform, "Virgin Story," produced by Lagadapati Sridhar, seems to be in the latter category.
"Virgin Story," starring debutante actor Vikram Sahidev and Sowmika, was released in theaters in February 2022 but was ignored by audiences. Reviews at the time were also not encouraging.
However, the film is gaining unexpected traction from viewers and has already crossed 10 million watch minutes within the first week of its release on AHA.
Therefore, "Virgin Story" can be considered a hit on OTT platforms, despite being a letdown in theaters.
