OTT
Release
Update:
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
teamed
up
with
director
Jayan
Nambiar,
the
former
associate
of
late
filmmaker
Sachy,
for
his
recent
Malayalam
film.
Vilaayath
Budha
(Vilayath
Buddha),
which
was
released
in
November
2025,
received
negative
reviews
from
the
audiences
and
ended
up
as
a
box
office
disaster.
The
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
starrer,
as
expected,
has
not
got
its
OTT
release,
yet.
Vilaayath
Budha
(Vilayath
Buddha)
OTT
Release
Update
As
reported
earlier,
the
OTT
streaming
rights
of
Vilaayath
Budha
were
sold
much
before
its
release,
for
a
decent
price.
The
sources
close
to
the
projects
had
hinted
that
the
post-theatrical
rights
of
the
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
starrer
are
bagged
by
the
OTT
giant
Jio
Hotstar.
Even
though
Jayan
Nambiar’s
film
was
expected
to
get
its
OTT
release
in
December
2025
or
January
2026,
it
is
not
out
yet.
What
Happened
To
Vilaayath
Budha
OTT
Release?
If
the
recent
updates
are
to
be
believed,
Vilaayath
Budha
might
not
get
its
OTT
release,
anytime
soon.
As
per
the
recent
updates,
the
digital
rights
deal
between
the
makers
of
the
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
starrer
and
Jio
Hotstar
has
been
put
on
hold
for
now,
owing
to
the
film’s
underwhelming
performance
at
the
box
office.
Reportedly,
the
streaming
giant
has
been
having
second
thoughts
about
the
film’s
digital
release,
owing
to
its
disastrous
box
office
run
and
lack
of
good
reviews.
Now,
it
is
confirmed
that
the
fate
of
Vilaayath
Budha
OTT
release
remains
uncertain
for
now.
However,
the
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
fans
are
still
hoping
that
the
issues
will
get
resolved
very
soon.
