Probably in a first, a Hindi film is being released in the theatres after a successful OTT run. Manoj Bajpayee`s `Bandaa` received rave reviews after it was released exclusively on ZEE5 on May 23. A week after its OTT release, the makers have released the film in theatres owing to the positive review for the film.
However, the film has opened in select screens in India. According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film is not being screened at national chains like PVR and Cinepolis.
