The leaking of movies in excellent quality before the official debut on the streaming sites is proving to be a big headache. It has been happening more frequently off -late, especially with South Indian movies. Taking the case of Majili itself, it was supposed to arrive on May 10th. However, it is available from today (May 5th itself). The advancement is due to the reason mentioned at the start.
Majili is a blockbuster success at the box office with more than 35 Cr collections. It is the solo highest grosser in the career of Naga Chaitanya. Samantha continues her dream run with the Shiva Nirvana directorial. It is the first time pairing of the star duo post the marriage. The subject worked perfectly with them as the leads.
On a side note, it was said recently that no big movie would be available on an online platform before seven weeks. Majili is clearly breaking that rule as it arrives in precisely a month. But it’s available only in the US, and it makes one wonder if the new rule is location specific or if the buzz of the gap between theatrical and online release was not accurate.
