7 releases but no audience! Is OTT taking a toll on theatrical releases in India?

The month of April is being very cold for Bollywood films. Many big-budget films were released in theatres, but not a single one is running successfully. Shaitaan featuring Ajay Devgn, Jyothika and R Madhavan was released last month on March 8. The film made bumper earnings, but all the films released after this film, could not live up to the expectations. Ajay Devgn's Maidaan and Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff's Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan, released on the occasion of Eid, have been disasters at the beginning of the year. Both were big-budget films and have not been able to recover their costs till now. Kareena, Tabu, and Kriti starrer Crew,   Randeep Hooda's Swatantrya Veer Savarkar, LSD2, Margaon Express and recently released Do Aur Do Pyaar are also in bad condition. Several back-to-back releases have also not been able to bring back audiences in the theatres.
