The biggies that were patiently awaiting their chance in movie theatres have one by one by one decided to shift loyalties to the digital platform. The latest on that front is director Ranjit Tiwari’s period thriller Bellbottom featuring Akshay Kumar in the lead. The producers Nikkil Advani and Pooja Entertainment had categorically denied any plans to opt for the digital option. And the film was poised for a theatrical release.

But now seeing the way the┬аCovid┬аcrisis is heading, chances of┬аBellbottom┬аkeeping its 28 May release date in movie theatres seems impossible. The film is now being sold to Disney+ Hotstar┬аfor an early digital premiere. Confirming this development, producer Nikkil Advani says, тАЬI believe it is being considered. But the final monetizing lies with Pooja Entertainment.тАЭ

Interestingly this is Disney-HotstarтАЩs second premium acquisition featuring Akshay Kumar. Laxmii which was acquired at an astronomical amount had a disastrous premiere on Disney+ Hotstar on November 2020.
