Laal Singh Chaddha's OTT Deal Agreement Closed For Much Less; Mixed Reactions On The Internet

Laal Singh Chaddha, a film starring Aamir Khan, has garnered a lot of recent media attention. As the crowd eagerly anticipated the film's debut because it was predicted to be the largest moneymaker of the year. Laal Singh Chaddha, however, turned out to be a huge box office flop.

In the past, Khan has declared that he won't make Laal Singh Chaddha streamable for another six months after the movie hits theatres. The actor remarked, "You may watch the movie right now in theatres, or you can wait six months to watch it on OTT."

Laal Singh Chaddha Negotiates With This OTT Giant, But For A Very Low Price

Now, according to Bollywood Hungama, Aamir Khan asked the major streaming service for Rs. 150 crores. He also asked that Laal Singh Chaddha will make its OTT debut on Netflix six months after its theatrical debut because he was considering a Chinese distribution.

The streamer was prepared to offer Rs. 80¨C90 crores, and after the movie's failure, even lowered his offer to Rs. 50 crores, which wasn't how Aamir had anticipated the situation would play out. Thus, the agreement never happened since Aamir refused to accept that sum and demanded a final price of Rs. 125 crores.

Netflix refuses to buy Laal Singh Chaddha¡¯s OTT rights after looking at its poor box office performance.

Now it will be sold for peanuts on some other platform.

I think Ullu can offer best deal to Aamir Khan.

Your opinion??

Tonight I saw Laal Singh Chaddha, which was a Bollywood remake of Forrest Gump. I had no idea what so was getting into, but I was surprised at how good the movie was. Very well shot and well acted, I had a wonderful time! pic.twitter.com/4iEuYTSBQE

Laal Singh Chaddha is a remake of the Hollywood film Forrest Gump. In contrast to Laal Singh Chaddha and the boycott culture, Forrest Gump is already available on OTT, and the general public claims they would be interested in seeing that. Kareena Kapoor Khan and Aamir Khan play prominent roles in the movie.
