 - Sakshi Post

The Kannada film industry was abuzz with news of the TV premiere of Upendra's UI on a popular Kannada general entertainment channel. However, news of the film's TV premiere has given rise to speculations that the OTT rights of the movie are unsold.

The makers of the film have denied that it sold the satellite and digital rights to Sun Network, instead, it sold to Zee Network and the OTT release is to be by the end of January, according to the sources.

Interestingly, Zee Network's deal with UI may only be for the TV rights, leaving the digital rights open for other platforms. This has led to speculation that the OTT rights may still be up for grabs.

The team behind UI had earlier claimed that the film was the highest-grosser of 2024 for the Kannada film industry, with estimated collections ranging from Rs 40 crore to Rs 45 crore. However, the film's theatrical run ended recently, and fans were expecting an OTT release announcement.

Instead, audiences are disappointed after the TV premiere announcement because it is felt that advertisement breaks would kill the experience of the show. According to director Upendra, the UI demands viewers to focus and attention to absorb the hidden messages within the film.

Fans need to wait until the mystery unfolding around the release of UI, OTT finally subsides by watching and witnessing further updates; whether it streams on some OTT or never finds a big platform other than television is completely within God's hands now.
