Producer Sajid Nadiadwala, director Nitesh Tiwari, and actors Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor have made the unexpected decision to release their upcoming film, Bawaal, only on digital platforms. Bawaal is scheduled to be a direct-to-digital release on Amazon Prime Video, according to sources close to the production companies.
“Bawaal is among the most ambitious films by Sajid Nadiadwala that rides on a subject that doesn’t exactly have the commercial trappings of dance and music. In the present market scenario. Sajid, who has a knack for commercial cinema, feels that it’s best to bring Bawaal on direct to digital, rather than risking a theatrical outing. He has got a great deal from digital players and decided to part ways with the original plans of bringing it in theatres,” a source told Bollywood Hungama.
Now, the movie will be available on Amazon Prime Video in October, and a formal announcement will be made soon.
Bawaal, a film directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, is planned for an Amazon Prime direct-to-digital distribution. Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor play key roles in the World War II-themed film.
