Pawan Kalyan’s period drama ‘Hari Hara Veera Mallu’ is reportedly set for an earlier-than-expected OTT release.
The film, which initially struggled at the box office despite a strong start, is now rumored to be premiering on Amazon Prime Video on August 15, coinciding with Independence Day, instead of the previously anticipated date of August 22.
The move is speculated to be a strategy to maximize reach and recover losses after its theatrical run.
Directed by Jyothi Krishna and Krish Jagarlamudi, the film is set in the 17th century and tells the story of a legendary outlaw, played by Pawan Kalyan.
While there has been no official confirmation from the filmmakers, the preponed release is being seen as an effort to capitalize on the Independence Day weekend and give the film a second life on the digital platform.
