From local to global: How streaming platforms are redefining South Indian cinema

Picture Credit: X One can say that streaming changed the map for South Indian cinema. Once limited primarily to regional markets and the Indian diaspora, films in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada are now transitioning from theatres to living-room screens, often just weeks after their theatrical runs. The result of these streams has shown the audience's interest in these stories, finding greater global viewership. Global platforms remove barriers Global streaming platforms have the capacity to subtitle and dub films at scale, they showcase regional hits on their homepage carousels and create personalised recommendations, and they bundle local and regional content with their global franchises. All of these capabilities do not need distributors, satellite windows of regional releases, and theatrical release territories, so that a Telugu period epic or low-budget Malayalam thriller can reach audiences that never would have been able to see it otherwise. As an example, Malayalam cinema is known for its subtle stories, but films such as 'Drishyam 2' and 'Kumbalangi Night' have attracted international audiences. Similarly, Telugu films such as 'Baahubali' and 'RRR' also breached regional representation to find global audiences - even the film 'RRR' became a global sensation on Netflix, with its over-the-top storytelling captivating viewers. We have also seen films from Tamil cinema, such as 'Sarpatta Parambarai' and 'Kantara' in Kannada, reach worldwide audiences aided by streaming services. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like SRM Online MBA – Empowering Future Leaders SRM Online Enquire Now Undo The second life of big films on OTT Speaking about the blockbuster movie like 'RRR'. Its theatrical success opened doors, but its re-release and later availability on global platforms allowed it to be marketed into new markets and conversations outside of India, like film festivals and late-night shows. The film's international circulation shows how streaming can add a second, global life to big regional films. During an interaction with a TV channel, as per Etimes, during the Covid-19 lockdown, when OTT gained the most prominence. The ace director SS Rajamouli said, "Even before COVID-19 crisis and the subsequent lockdown, OTT has made its presence felt. However, with the prohibition of mass social gatherings and shutdown of theaters, streaming platforms are making the most of the situation." At the same he also defended cinema halls, calling them irreplaceable. Simultaneously, filmmakers are affirming that platforms have possibilities for experimentation. Niche films, riskier scripts and regional voices can prosper without having a mass theatrical opening. Directors working in small departmental, high-concept spaces can use a decent OTT launch to recoup production costs and build a fanbase that hopefully leads to more, bigger projects. Deepika Padukone Creates History as First Indian Actress on Hollywood Walk of Fame New revenue models and industry concerns Streaming has created new revenue models and opportunities for revenue security from a business perspective. Companies can sell rights, provide minimum guarantees, and develop hybrid release models, for instance, a theatrical window pre-empted by an OTT release. Both producers and filmmakers have concerns, with some fretting that OTT films, for instance, cannibalise box office revenue and shorten theatrical exclusivity. While streaming platforms have unquestionably expanded South Indian cinema's reach, they have also triggered a new debate within the industry about how soon a film should appear online after its theatrical debut. According to a report by Mint, Devang Sampat, managing director, Cinepolis India, shared that the dialogue between film producers and exhibitors over the gap between theatrical and OTT premieres is undergoing a significant shift, shaped by evolving audience behaviour and market. He said, "The conversation between producers and exhibitors regarding the window between theatrical and OTT releases is evolving dynamically, especially in light of recent trends. For Hindi films, the standard practice has settled around an eight-week gap before transitioning to OTT platforms. However, in the Tamil and Malayalam film industries, this window is more varied, ranging from four to eight weeks. We believe that maintaining a proper window is essential for preserving the value of the theatrical experience and ensuring that both producers and exhibitors benefit from a well-balanced release strategy". Ultimately, streaming hasn't replaced the big screen; rather, it has broadened the South Indian cinematic journey by connecting local stories to global audiences.
