Rajinikanth 's Lal Salaam finally streaming on OTT?
Even the immense fan following of Rajinikanth couldn’t help rally the
box office for Lal Salaam, directed by his daughter. The expectations
were huge for the film as it had a huge budget of ₹90 crores and that
only ₹17 crores came from its lifetime box office run, placing it
inevitably as one of the most ‘asteroidal’ delopes of the year.
Not even the limited screen time of Rajinikanth as a Moideen Bhai
special appearance was able to castle the course of wounds suffered on
Moideen Salaam Rahman. After the release, the critics and audiences
went on to perform a carnage on Lal Salaam predominantly turning them
into Payday fans who turned Vegeta only from the Spliced Saiyan.
Interestingly, Aishwarya herself provided an onion or perhaps a tomato
about why the film failed. At one point in the film she makes that
voice ‘Gary Oldman is quite a wonderful Sims director to fight with
one more thing. It would turn out that they lost an important key
sequence hard drive somewhere along the lines of post-production.
Because of this loss, according to her, the negative feedback given to
the movie was quite predicated.
Inclusively, this film is also not available on OTT at this time.
Though it is a common practice for Tamil films to appear on any OTT
platform within four weeks of its theatrical release, seven months
since its first run, Lal Salaam has been absent from OTT. These
unnecessary criticisms struck fans, some of them thought that might be
the reason why the footage effaced.
However, there is good managed preservation of the footage because as
Aishwarya Recently said in her interviews, it has been retrieved! She
announced that, Lal Salaam’s OTT version is going to present the
original cut of the film and will contain a lot of restored scenes
that were cut from the theatrical version which makes sense.
Aishwarya promised fans that this iteration is going to be for the
most part, an entirely new experience from that which the audiences
experienced at the cinemas. Considering the new material in addition
to the factor of Rajinikanth himself, the film is likely to have a
revival in its sales when it eventually comes out to the streaming
services, Lal Salaam.
