Vishwak Sen’s mass entertainer Gangs of Godavari released two weeks ago and the film received mixed response. After holding well over the weekend, the film’s numbers dropped down over the weekdays. The makers agreed for an early digital streaming and Gangs of Godavari will stream on Netflix from June 14th just after two weeks of the release. Satyadev’s Krishnamma was available on digital platforms within a week of its theatrical release. The makers of Telugu films are agreeing for early digital rights and these are indirectly killing the footfalls for average films.

In the future, the audience will prefer a digital watch instead of watching the average and below average films in theatres because of these early digital streaming decisions. Every producer is bothered about their own financial benefits and they are not much interested about the survival of theatres. Though there is enough criticism, the efforts to support the theatre system is not seen among the producers.

Vishwak Sen is one Telugu actor who has come without any background. After a series of impressive films, Vishwak Sen is all set to test his luck with Gangs of Godavari, a rustic native entertainer. The film is announced for December 8th release. Nani’s Hi Nanna, Nithiin’s Extra Ordinary Man and Varun Tej’s Operation Valentine are the other films releasing over the same weekend. With multiple releases, there is a lot of pressure on Vishwak Sen and his team to postpone the film. Vishwak took to his official social media page to announce that if Gangs of Godavari is not released in December, he would not promote the film. He sounded extremely confident on the film and his statement is like a message for the makers not to push the film’s release and not to bow to the pressure from other filmmakers.

“Background lekapothe prathi na koduku mana game marudhham Anukuntadu. Nenu cinema chudakunda prathi frame pranam petti Pani chesi cheptunna! December 8th vasthunnam, hit, flop, super hit, utter flop, me decision. Aveshaniki ledha ego ki theeskune decision kadhu. Thagge Koddi mingutharu ani ardhamiandhi. December 8th sivalethipodhi. Gangamma thalli ki na ottu. Maha Khaali maatho undhi. If not December won’t see me in promotions anymore. #GoG” posted Vishwak Sen.
