The title, whether for good or bad reasons, is currently one of the buzziest films from the past year, as Saltburn manages to gain a lot of traction. However, it faces a similar problem to most ‘little’ budget Hollywood films – they don’t release globally.
In recent times, a similar issue is observed with Poor Things or Anyone But You. In these scenarios, OTT becomes the only escape for viewers who question the makers with two inquiries: Where and When?
The answer to ‘Where’ is known, as Prime Video is already streaming it in parts of the globe, especially in the US where it had a celebrated theatrical run.
But for Indian viewers, Prime Video has not provided answers yet, as they are not clear about the film’s release date. Moreover, Saltburn isn’t even streaming on VOD for India, making the situation even worse.
Saltburn, in terms of technicalities, is considered a Prime Video Original. Thus, the film should have a certain release date, but this time, Prime is cooking up something mysterious. No, a film like Saltburn will not be a massy hit in the Indian market and may barely leave any mark.
However, on the OTT sphere, it can receive ample love, which Prime Video seems to be sacrificing. Follow Binged tonget further updates on Saltburn and your other OTT queries.
