OTT is massive wave but it is not demise of Bollywood: Ayushmann Khurrana

“The arrival of OTT is not a demise of Bollywood, if we see the content on OTT platforms, it is similar to Bollywood, says the actor.

Hyderabad: Speaking at the second edition of the ‘Ideas of India’ Summit, actor Ayushmann Khurrana said recently, “The arrival of OTT is not a demise of Bollywood, if we see the content on OTT platforms, it is similar to Bollywood. So, the content should be on the right platform and address the target audience. The consumer is on OTT platforms as it can be adjusted as per their comfort.”

He added, “When you are unconventional, you don’t have an option and you need to do something different with your character and the movie you choose. My father always supported me and pushed me to take these tough decisions. I can’t leave my staple genre, I am living until I am taking risks and that has always been my USP.”

I don’t care what people say about my personal beliefs and trolling me on social media but yes if my fans don’t like the work, that affects me. ”
