After much speculation as to when Kartik Aaryan starrer ‘Shehzada’ will premiere on Netflix, the streaming giant has finally broken its silence. Helmed by Rohit Dhawan, ‘Shehzada’ is the Hindi remake of Allu Arjun’s hit Telugu film ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’ and will land on Netflix in just a couple of days!
‘Shehzada’ had massive expectations before its theatrical release and there were good reasons for the same. Firstly, Kartik Aaryan’s casting in the lead role itself was a big factor for the film given his recent box office success. Secondly, the original Telugu version was a great hit and something similar was expected from the remake too.
But unfortunately the film bombed at the box office despite the massy star appeal and everything. Neither the viewers liked it nor the critics. ‘Shehzada’ received negative reviews for its story, screenplay, and mostly all other parts. Apparently nothing seemed to work in its favour.
Now that ‘Shehzada’ is set to spread its wings on Netflix it will be interesting to see how people respond to it. Will the OTT’s convenient viewing factor work in the film’s favour or lack of good storyline work against the film once again.
Anyways, the good news is that ‘Shehzada’ is finally coming to Netflix tomorrow on 14th April, 2023 and the streamer kept it under wraps until now to spring it as surprise for the viewers.
