Double iSmart OTT: The much-anticipated Telugu movie Double iSmart, directed by the dynamic Puri Jagannath and starring Ram Pothineni, has finally hit theaters. Following the success of their previous collaboration, iSmart Shankar, this film had high expectations from fans and industry insiders. Made with significant effort and backed by a strong fan base, Double iSmart has garnered average reviews, marking a mixed start to its box office journey. Despite this, the OTT release of the film is already generating buzz.
As per recent updates, Amazon Prime Video has secured the digital streaming rights for Double iSmart at a whopping deal reportedly worth ₹33 crores. The movie is expected to be available for streaming four to six weeks after its theatrical release. Audiences can look forward to watching the film on Amazon Prime by late September. This timeline aligns with typical OTT release windows for big-budget Telugu films, ensuring a wider audience beyond the cinema halls.
The movie, which is a sequel to iSmart Shankar, brings back the high-octane energy, catchy music by Mani Sharma, and a heavy dose of mass appeal. However, early reviews suggest that the film may struggle to meet its break-even target of ₹50 crores, as it failed to capture the excitement that the original movie sparked fully. Given the current scenario, the movie’s weekend performance might be crucial to its overall success.
However, fans of mass entertainers and action-packed narratives can soon catch Double iSmart from the comfort of their homes, exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. Whether the film can achieve its expected milestones remains to be seen, but it’s clear that the digital release is eagerly awaited.
