OTT has given strength to the viewers as people are noticing things that was not possible earlier. What really happened on the big screens and TV that small details went missing.Viewers never got any playback control. The images moved fast and that’s all people got. With the arrival of OTTs, viewers got a sort of power that earlier modes of consumption could never grant them. This grant of power is essentially through playback control itself.
So, Sarfira started streaming on Disney+Hotstar. The movie was a bad remake as the original Soorarai Pottru starring Suriya is miles ahead of that Akshay Kumar remake. But, there is one clip on the internet that is making everyone go wild. It is related to Akshay Kumar reading dialogues through teleprompter.
Firstly it is pretty obvious that he does so many films a year so he can’t be dedicated enough to remember the dialogues and stuff. But that is what we wanna address. OTT is a sort of power.
Had there been no technology to look after this then nobody would notice the subtle detail that exposes the presence of a teleprompter.
So, what do you think about it?
Should Akshay Kumar take a lesson and finally start working on his characters?
He should but at this point of time, doesn’t look like that he would.
Did someone really catch Akshay Kumar using a teleprompter to read his lines while filming scenes in Sarfira?#AkshayKumar pic.twitter.com/MoAD3A3FCu
