HIGHLIGHTS
* Bhediya is reportedly coming to Jio Cinema on April 21st
* Vikram Vedha is expected to premier on the same platform on May 8th
* The reason for the delay in their OTT release is still unclear
The mystery around the OTT release of mainstream movies like Vikram Vedha and Bhediya has now been apparently resolved. New reports coming in suggest the two movies are on their way to the online world with release slated for the next few weeks.
If you have been wondering when you will be able to stream these Bollywood movies online, here are all the details.
According to Telly Chakkar quoting other reports, Bhediya is coming to OTT first – Jio Cinema on April 21st. Then, we reportedly will see the release of Vikram Vedha on the same platform on May 8th.
Interestingly, Bhediya released in theatres on November 24th 2022, while Vikram Vedha came out much earlier on September 30th last year. This gives them an OTT release almost 21 weeks and 29 weeks after their theatrical releases. The usual norm in Hindi cinema is about 8 weeks for mainstream movies.
A report from last week had suggested the OTT release of Bhediya and Vikram Vedha had been delayed indefinitely because Reliance Jio was planning to launch a new app. On this app, certain movies like the ones mentioned here would premiere weekly, in an attempt to lure viewers to the new entertainment app.
However, it seems plans for the app have been shelved for now and the movies will come to Jio Cinema. Notably, IPL 2023 is currently underway on the JioCinema app.
With Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon in the lead, Bhediya is a supernatural horror-comedy set in a small town in India, where a young couple’s life takes a bizarre turn when the man turns into a werewolf.
As they try to deal with this unexpected situation, they uncover a sinister plot that threatens the entire town. The movie has been appreciated for its excellent special effects and comic timing.
On the other hand, Vikram Vedha is a gritty Indian crime thriller, in which an encounter specialist cop, Vikram, sets out to catch a notorious gangster, Vedha. As Vikram delves deeper into Vedha’s life, he begins to question his own morality and whether he is on the right side of the law. The movie stars Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan.
