Meiyazhagan, starring Karthi and Arvind Swamy in the lead roles, is still running in theatres, but it’s currently in the final leg of its theatrical run. Considering the face value and reception, the film was expected to do well at the box office. Unfortunately, despite its merits, the film failed to make it big, and now, it is heading towards the losing verdict. Amid this, we have some exciting details about its possible OTT release date and the streaming platform.
Reception of the film
Directed by C. Prem Kumar, the Kollywood drama was released in theatres on September 27. Upon its release, the Karthi and Arvind Swamy starrer opened to mostly positive reviews from critics. Even word-of-mouth among the ticket-buying audience was favorable. However, for some reason, it didn’t work that well, and it is yet to recover its reported budget.
Where and when to watch Meiyazhagan on OTT
Even before hitting theatres, Meiyazhagan’s streaming rights were sold to Netflix. Like the majority of South releases, this film is said to have a four-week OTT window, which means that it’ll be streaming on OTT after completing four weeks in theatres. So, considering the theatrical release on September 27, the film is likely to stream on Netflix from October 25. However, an official confirmation is awaited.
