Karan Johar’s  Selfiee Release Platform Is An Open Clause In The Contract

Right now, the  Indian movie industry seems sharply divided on whether  to  release films on  the  OTT platform ,the  movie theatres ,  or both.

Many recent  movies that have  gone  into theatres have  bombed by being on  the wrong platform. Most trade experts  feel that recent theatre releases  like   Jersey, Jayesh Jordaar and  Runway 34  would have  fared  much better had  they been released straight   on  the  digital platform.

Keeping in  mind move the  fluid state  of  the  movie business Karan Johar has drawn up a suitably inconclusive  contract  with Disney + Hotstar  for  his underproduction Akshay Kumar-Emran Hashmi starrer Selfiee.

A  source  close to  the project reveals, “Considering the state  of flux that the  movie  industry  finds  itself in right now, Karan has kept the  release format for Selfie  undecided . Once the film is complete  only then would Disney+Hotstar and  Karan Johar  take a call on whether to  release  it directly on digital  or  in movie theatres followed by  a digital release.”
