It was last year and it was on the verge of ending. All major OTT platforms had slated big releases for the year-end. So did Disney+Hotstar and they emerge as the clear champion.
With Dhanush and Akshay Kumar’s Atrangi Re, the platform not only used their stardom but a huge subscriber base to outperform all other platforms.
This year too, Freddy is sure to be released on Disney+Hotstar in December. Also, there is a huge buzz that Vicky Kaushal’s “Govinda Mera Naam” will land on Disney+Hotstar itself but that is for some other day to discuss.
If we ignore the subscriber base of Disney+Hotstar and focus solely on the organic response then it is too promising to ignore.
Last year too, Kartik Aaryan’s Dhamaka on Netflix performed too well. So can be said about Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 which was a big success in both theaters and OTT.
The actor had limited himself to a small box of roles but now, he is getting over that. The response to Freddy looks like exactly that.
The teaser of Freddy was released on the 7th of November and it has been trending on YouTube since then. It is a big thing, especially for a film like Freddy which is coming on OTT instead of theaters.
So the month of December looks too good for Hotstar but everything depends upon the quality of the film. We hope the makers have worked on that.
