Bhoot Police, Hungama 2, Mimi, Shiddat and Shaadistan to see direct premiere on Disney+ Hotstar

Last year, the theatres were closed and makers of several projects resorted to the direct-to-digital premiere. Amid the second wave of COVID-19 in 2021, theatres are still closed in many states and makers are skeptical to push their films ahead. Instead, many have opted to premiere their films. Disney+ Hotstar premiered a slate of big films on its platform and is planning the same, this year as well.

It was reported earlier that horror-comedy Bhoot Police starring Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Yami Gautam will witness direct-to-digital release on this streaming giant. Tips Industries Ltd in association with 12th Street Entertainment presents Bhoot Police and is directed by Pavan Kirpalani.

Apart from this, Hungama 2 by Priyadarshan is also going straight to OTT. Produced by Ratan Jain and Ganesh Jain, the film stars Paresh Rawal, Shilpa Shetty Kundra, Meezaan Jaffery, Pranitha Subhash, Johnny Lever, Tiku Talsania, Ashutosh Rana, and Rajpal Yadav. It has a special cameo from Akshaye Khanna.
