It looks like it’s not just heads that are rolling at Netflix. Talk is that projects that don’t inspire the confidence of the head honchos are also being axed. Call it being overtly cautious or too prudent, the OTT platform is said to be relooking at its content slate. The grapevine has it that the streaming giant is backing out of Abbas-Mustan’s Penthouse. A Netflix original starring Bobby Deol, Arjun Rampal and Sharman Joshi, the slick and stylised whodunnit has been keenly anticipated since its announcement last March. However, the bosses at the streaming platform feel the content doesn’t meet their global standards. As a result, they are reportedly scrapping the thriller. With Netflix reportedly no longer excited about premiering it, the fate of Abbas-Mustan’s thriller hangs in balance.
