While makers of several films like Sardar Udham and Rashmi Rocket decided to go ahead with a scheduled OTT release despite the government having announced the reopening of theatres, director Sujoy Ghosh has decided to revisit his plan. The Sonam Kapoor Ahuja starrer was to initially mark her web debut, but Ghosh admits that the team is now uncertain about their decision.
Blind director Ghosh tells a print tabloid that they will decide the further course of action next month. As per him all filmmakers, at the end of the day, make movies for big screen. They have been thinking about going ahead with a theatrical release, but one doesn’t always get what they want. Suddenly, there is a plethora of films coming in and shelf space is an issue. There is a list of movies lined up for release and nobody has the income to watch four film a week. He also added that now, since many have been unemployed in the past year, watching movies at a multiplex with the family can be an expensive affair.
Directed by Shome Makhija, the story of Blind revolves around a visually impaired police cadet, played by Sonam Kapoor, who uses her senses to find a killer. The action-thriller, also features Vinay Pathak, Purab Kohli and Lillete Dubey, was shot in a start-to-finish schedule from December 2020, in Glasgow, Scotland.
