Abhishek Bachchan-starrer Dasvi to skip theatrical release AND TAKE THE DIGITAL ROUTE
OTT platforms were a boon for the entertainment industry during the pandemic and people saw some brilliant films on them while hoping that the theatres would reopen soon. Now even though we saw theatres reopening some filmmakers and actors are still choosing OTT platforms for their films. Besides Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan too skipped the theatrical release of his next release ‘Dasvi’, the film is said to release on Jio Cinema and Netflix on April 7.
Surprisingly this is Abhishek’s and Yami’s fourth digital offing. A source said, “The film will be released on April 7. It is produced by Jio Studios and Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films. Their last film together, Mimi (2021), was premiered on both Jio Cinema and Netflix. Similarly, Dasvi would also be released on both the streaming giants.”
The source said, “Abhishek Bachchan was praised in these three OTT films and also in the web series Breath: Into The Shadows (2020). Even in Dasvi, he has delivered a memorable performance. Yami Gautam, meanwhile, was loved in A Thursday, which was released recently. Though Nimrat Kaur was last seen in Airlift (2016) six years back, she is remembered even today. As a result, the star cast is sure to create a buzz. Moreover, the film is said to be a comedy with a great social message about education. And the fact that it’s produced by Dinesh Vijan, who has given memorable similar films in the past like Hindi Medium (2017) and Angrezi Medium (2020), has made Dasvi a film to watch out for.”
As per the source, the official announcement of Dasvi’s digital release and the release date is expected to take place today, that is, Monday, March 14.
