Ajay Devgn’s Bhuj Eyeing Direct To Digital Release?

Ajay Devgn’s pet project Bhuj may opt for the Direct to Digital route, if sources are to be believed. Bhuj, which stars the delectable pair of Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt, along with Sonakshi Sinha, is reportedly in talks with Disney Plus Hotstar for release on its platform. The makers are waiting to strike a good deal with the streaming platform.

Bhuj has been directed by Abhishek Dudhaiya. The movie is nowhere complete yet, with some portions still remaining to be shot. The movie is set in the backdrop of the 1972 India-Pakistan war. It features the uplifting story of IAF Squadron Leader Vijay Karnik, who was in charge of the Bhuj airport during the war. The IAF officer, along with his team, reconstructed the IAF airbase with the help of 300 local women.

The movie has an interesting premise and would have been an ideal release for 15th August, on Independence Day. But if only the Coronavirus pandemic hadn’t happened.

The Covid-19 shutdown in the entertainment industry has led to several movies with leading stars skipping theatrical release and heading to OTT platforms for direct to digital release. Gulabo Sitabo, Shakuntala Devi, Ponmagal Vandhal, Ghoomketu, French Biryani, and a whole bunch of others are releasing directly on OTT.

So will Bhuj take the direct to digital release route? It certainly looks so.
