They decide the date, not us: Kuberaa producer slams OTT's growing control
As the Akkineni Nagarjuna and Dhanush-starrer 'Kuberaa' gears up for release, producer Suniel Narang has revealed how OTT platforms have become increasingly an interview with Gulte, 'Kuberaa' Producer Suniel Narang said, 'OTT platforms are deciding the release date. When we thought there might be a delay of a week or two, I requested a date in July. But they asked me to release on the initially agreed date, June 20. If not, they said they would cut 10 crore from the agreed amount.'advertisementSpeaking about the larger situation in the Telugu film industry, he said, 'The industry has taken a hit because of a few incidents. We are completely dependent on Qube, the cinema service provider. Without satellite, the film couldn't be released. Then there's BookMyShow. Stop the internet for an hour, and collections will drop to zero. We've become reliant on all of that and then OTT.' On this growing dependence, he added, 'Earlier, it was only satellite and theatrical. Based on that, we made our films. Now, we're making movies depending on these platforms. Slowly, they're becoming the kings of the industry. These three are happy regardless of whether the film works or not.'Sharing his views on reducing actors' remuneration, he said, 'People keep saying reduce artistes' pay. But why? We have a population of 145 crore, and out of that, barely 40–50 stars across India. That means they're practically gods. We go to them, invest in them, make films. It's not like they're calling us and asking us to make films, right?'advertisementHere's the trailer of 'Kubera': Meanwhile, Sekhar Kammula's 'Kuberaa', starring Dhanush, Nagarjuna, Rashmika Mandanna, and Jim Sarbh in the lead, is set to release on June Watch

Naseeruddin Shah yelled at me after people applauded my back-to-back performances, says Amruta Subhash: ‘He said I would rather see you fail than…'
Amruta Subhash, the daughter of notable Marathi actress Jyoti Subhash, is known for her roles in projects like Lust Stories 2, Sacred Games, and Gully Boy, among others. A graduate from National School of Drama, Amruta often takes part is several plays. Once, when she performed at NSD, actor Naseeruddin Shah, an alumni of the drama school was present in the audience to watch the play. Amruta was proud as her scenes garnered much praise and applause. When she performed for the second time, she noticed, this time too the veteran actor was sitting in the audience watching her performance. A proud Amruta believed she was up for great compliments from the actor. However, that was not the case. Speaking to Lallantop, Amruta shared, 'I was doing a play called Trishna. I had a scene where I had to cry, and people would applaud that scene. That sort of gave me this feeling that 'Wow, I am doing wonders.' I was too proud of myself. Ahankaar hogaya tha (I was full of pride). Naseeruddin sir came, he watched two of my shows. He noticed people clapping for me. I was under the impression that sir is going to praise me a lot. After the show, we were all standing at a tea stall outside NSD. I saw Naseer sir walking towards me but I pretended as though I didn't see him coming at all. He came to me, and he was like, 'Amruta', I was like, 'Yes sir', and he then said, 'I watched your play' and the proud me was like, 'Okay and?' and he then said, 'Beta, I am concerned.' I was shocked. I was like I received so much applause for my work, why is he so concerned?'

He was very angry. He said in a higher tone, 'I would rather see you failing doing something new rather than doing the same thing again and again for claps, okay?' I was like, 'Okay sir, sorry'. He then gave me a lot of gyaan. He said you're forcing yourself on the character and not letting it explore anything new. You will be repetitive person. Your career will be over. That incident changed things in me. I understood where I went wrong.' Amruta and Naseeruddin shared screens in Nandita Das' directorial debut film Firaaq (2008). Naseeruddin Shah, originally a theatre artiste, is also the founder of theatre group Motley Productions. The production house stages plays in English, Hindi and Urdu around the world.
