Bhool Chuk Maaf OTT Release Restrained:

Maddock Films' Bhool Chuk Maaf was scheduled to be released on May 9 in cinemas. However, in light of the ongoing crisis between India and Pakistan, the team canceled the theatrical release of the film and decided to release it on OTT on May 16. This decision led to a new problem, though.

Bhool Chuk Maaf to Release Directly on OTT amid National Concerns –

PVR-Inox has filed a lawsuit against Maddock Films, seeking Rs. 60 crore in damages over the non-release of Maddock's film Bhool Chuk Maaf. According to PVR-Inox, Maddock abruptly pulled the film from its scheduled theatrical release on May 9 due to weak advance bookings. Maddock, however, states that the decision was made out of respect for the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam and its aftermath. This information was shared by trade analyst Mr. Komal Nahta.

Now, Nahta has announced that the Mumbai High Court has restrained the makers of Bhool Chuk Maaf from releasing their movie on the OTT platform. The court granted relief to PVR-Inox, resulting in a halt to the OTT release of the film. The makers must first resolve the issue with the cinema chains before they can proceed with the OTT release. The fate of this romantic comedy, starring Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi in the lead roles, remains uncertain.
