Demon Slayer Movie: Infinity Castle to skip OTT release? All you need to know
Demon Slayer Infinity Castle movie part 1 to skip OTT?
The makers of Demon Slayer have always kept the theatrical releases and anime series separate. The movie offers more insight into the story and expands on what happens after the previous plot. Every Demon Slayer movie connects one arc to the next. The makers have often released films with the very intention of bringing fans to theatres. Through this method, they tease fans about next season.
The first episode of the next season begins from the cliffhanger moment in the movie and continues from that point on. This time around too, the makers promise that Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle – Part 1 aka Akaza's Return will be a theatrical-exclusive release.
So, will there be no new Demon Slayer Infinity Castle series aka Demon Slayer season 5?
It is unlikely that we will get a Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle series, or season 5. The makers had clarified this right after Demon Slayer: Hashira Training Arc aka Demon Slayer season 4 released on OTT.
However, not all doors are shut yet, and audiences' response to the movies might just decide if the makers expand the world briefly and wrap it up with season 5. At this point, though, there is no season 5 in the works, and the world of Demon Slayer will come to an end in 2029 with the release of Infinity Castle movie Part 3.
Where to brush up on the Demon Slayer story so far?
This could be your last chance to experience the world of Demon Slayer on the big screen. To recap the story — why protagonist Tanjiro Kamado seeks revenge on Akaza and the main antagonist Muzan, and what it took for him to get this far — you can watch all four seasons of Demon Slayer on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium.

I have fond memories of my childhood from both Mumbai and Delhi, each has its own distinct way of celebrating the occasion.. My son,now a big boy, loved dressing up as Krishna when he was a toddler. My sisters wish me a happy birthday every year for they playfully call me Krishna of our house. In fact my father was born on Janmashtami so we wish him a happy birthday too. This year, with JioHotstar bringing everyone together, it feels like those intimate moments are finding a bigger stage." About this association, Shaan added, 'The personality of Lord Krishna has always fascinated me most among all dieties. Every chapter of his life, from infancy to and the supreme Guru, from the mischievous to the Masterfull, He underplayed his power, unless compelled to, and yet never succumbed to adharmaa or 'the wrong path'. He was always a team player who led with wisdom and charm. As a kid, I was always so intrigued and excited about Dahi Handi, but could never participate. But once, years ago, I was part of a Janmashtami celebrations. That day I realised that devotion can dance, and music can smile. Even today, when I sing for Krishna, it's that same boy, just on a bigger stage.'

Sahasam director Bibin Krishna says there is ‘huge possibility' for Twenty One Grams sequel but…
Malayalam filmmaker Bibin Krishna's second movie, Sahasam, is now running in theatres, garnering positive feedback for its hilarious narrative. In an interview with OTTplay, the filmmaker spoke about the possibility of a sequel for his debut movie, Twenty One Grams, which is streaming on JioHotstar and OTTplay Premium. Bibin Krishna 'Huge possibility for a sequel' Bibin stated that he never intends to create a sequel when he starts a script, but by the time it is finished, he frequently has the possibility of one. "People do ask me if there would be a sequel for Twenty One Grams and I am happy because it means they enjoyed the movie," he stated. "I often wonder what happens to the characters after writing a screenplay, so why not have a sequel?" the director continued. While stating there is a 'huge possibility' for a second part, he claimed to have had brief conversations on potential sequel plot points with a few members of the cast and crew. "However, I am currently concentrating on my upcoming film and I prefer to take one step at a time," he remarked. While Twenty One Grams is a compelling thriller, Bibin's Sahasam is a full-fledged comedy entertainer. The screenplays for both films were written by the director. The film Sahasam, starring Narain, Babu Antony, Baiju Santhosh, Shabareesh Varma, Gouri G Kishan, and Ramzan, was released on August 8. Narain hasn't starred in a Malayalam movie in a while. His most recent was the 2023 film, Queen Elizabeth, that can be viewed on ZEE5 via OTTplay Premium. Twenty One Grams plot and cast details A clever police officer named Nanda Kishore, who is coping with his own traumas, sets out to unravel a series of unexplained killings in Kochi within a week . He is faced with a moral conundrum when the secrets come to light. Key roles in this investigative thriller are played by Anoop Menon, Renji Panicker, Leona Lishoy, Anu Mohan, Aji John, Chandunath G. Nair, Manasa Radhakrishnan, and Ranjith. Vinayak Sasikumar wrote the lyrics, and Deepak Dev composed the soundtrack.
