Filmmaker Pulkit is in the spotlight due to his latest production, “Kartavya.” During an interview, Pulkit spoke about the reasons for choosing OTT for the release of his movies rather than the theater.
He mentioned that when a movie comes up for theatrical release, there is immense pressure involved. As an illustration, he cited his previous production “Maalik,” which he had not felt entirely satisfied with since pressure did not suit him well then.
He said, "There's a lot of pressure on filmmakers in the theater world. During 'Maalik,' I wasn't happy with the film because I couldn't deliver a good job under pressure." So I don't want to take on that pressure anymore.
