About Bhool Chuk Maaf:
Bhool Chuk Maaf was earlier in the controversy after the makers decided to release the film directly on OTT. However, PVRInox sent a legal notice to Maddock Films and Pen Marudhar after the makers opted for direct streaming. For the unversed, Maddock Films took the decision of releasing Bhool Chuk Maaf directly on OTT in the light of recent situation and the heightened security drills across the country.
An insider told the publication, “They are not liable to answer anyone. Cinema halls in Jodhpur, and Punjab are shut, whereas the cinema halls in cities like Delhi are non-operational in the night shows. With the cancellation of IPL, it was a no-brainer for the producers to delay the release of Bhool Chuk Maaf. Since the KDM’s were already loaded all across the globe, there was a possibility of piracy too, which pushed the makers to go for a direct-to-digital release without much of a delay.”
As per Bollywood Hungama, PVR Inox argued that the decision of film’s direct OTT release was a clear breach of their binding agreement signed on May 6, 2025. The agreement reportedly mandated not only a theatrical release but also an 8-week exclusivity window before any digital premiere.
Bhool Chuk Maaf will release on Prime Video after theatre. Bhool Chuk Maaf also stars Sanjay Mishra, Seema Bhargava Pahwa, Zakir Hussain Raghubir Yadav, Ishtiyak Khan, Anubha Fateh Puria, Jay Thakkar and Pragati Mishra seen in the pivotal roles.
About Kesari Veer:
