The Covid-19 pandemic is turning out to be a difficult nut to crack. It badly affected film industries around the world. The Indian film industry was no exception. It even did not spare the effervescent South Indian film industry. Many films await their releases while several others are still hanging midway, waiting to be completed. The crisis has badly jolted the industry, which is suddenly finding itself short of audiences.
In an effort to target a larger market and audience, the South Indian film industry is increasingly roping in Bollywood superstars to work in its movies. The industry hopes to generate a pan India appeal with the inclusion of these stars.
While the trend is not new, it is now picking up the pace. Production houses in the Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam film industries, with their big-budget entertainers, have already captured the imagination of Indian viewers. Adding a dash of extra spice involving Bollywood stars will help these industries lock mass circuits like the Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 cities in large Indian states such as Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh.
The Covid-19 era saw the emergence of a powerful media, the OTT platform. These platforms offered the viewers an opportunity to watch their favorite shows and Telugumovies full online at a time when theatres across the country were shut, leaving them with no option but to look for an alternate source of entertainment. OTT platforms have acted as a lifeline andhelped the Telugu film industry revive itself.
Aha is one such OTT platform. It offers excellent on-demand online video streaming services and caters exclusively to Telugu audiences. Its vast collection of online content across different genres allows viewers to watch ad-free shows and Telugu movies online. It also offers detailed expert movie reviews.
