MUMBAI: Bhumi Pednekar’s much awaited movie Durgavati is all set for an OTT release.

There are reports of the creators having worked out a deal with Amazon Prime Video to release the film on the streaming platform.

Starring Pednekar in the titular role, Durgavati is a Hindi-language horror thriller film. It is a remake of its Telugu counterpart, Bhaagamathie. The film also stars Jisshu Sengupta, Arshad Warsi, Mahie Gill, and Murali Sharma in pivotal roles.

Directed by G. Ashok, the same director who helmed the Anushka Shetty starrer Telugu version, Durgavati revolves around an IAS officer Chanchal Chauhan – otherwise known as Durgavati.

The story is about law enforcement officials interrogating a woman (played by Pednekar), whom they have imprisoned in a haunted house. The case being investigated is of corruption charges against a politician.

Vikram Malhotra of Abundantia Entertainment, who produced the film along with superstar Akshay Kumar and film producer Bhushan Kumar, is set to make an official announcement in the coming month.
