The central government has granted permission to reopen theatres all over the nation with 50 percent occupancy. The producers and distributors of big-budget films will not be ready to release them amidst limited occupancy. It is the reason behind Soorarai Pottru, Laxmii, and many other movies skipping the theatrical release. The streaming platforms are ready with fancy and tempting deals for the producers. According to the buzz on social media, ‘Master’ is the next film on the list to skip a theatrical release. The film unit released an official press note hinting at a theatrical release, but it is very uncertain.The rumors of ‘Master’ hitting a digital platform started long back.
The film unit already condemned these speculations in the past. In the latest press release, the production team confirmed that a streaming platform approached with a big deal to sell the film away. They did not directly mention that the movie will release in theatres alone in the same press release. They indirectly mentioned that point and hoped to see the film in theatres.It is a clever way of preparing the audiences for the worst. The producers genuinely want the film to hit theatres, but they will be losing side with less occupancy and corona scare. If the situation is not going to change, they will consider the deal from the streaming platform and announce the release date.
