Zareen Khan, who was joined by Sunny Kaushal, Priyanshu Painyuli, Ellie Avram, and more, said that OTT has also become a space where favouritism works. Speaking about the same, Zareen Khan said, “The OTT boom that we’ve had is because Bollywood industry, at the time, or Hindi films were facing backlash. This, in a way, gave rise to OTT space, great films, actors. It was that big period where it flourished. We had reached a saturation point.”The Bollywood Hungama OTT India Fest and India Entertainment Awards, in association with Cinema Waale Film and Television Productions LLP and Across Media Solutions, is to be held on the 3rd & 4th of October 2024 at Taj Lands End, Mumbai.
