Jigris Seeks Second Life on OTT After Brief and Bruised Theatrical Run
Failed in theatres, OTT gives a second chance .
Jigris arrived with quirky ambition but exited theatres almost unnoticed.
The Telugu language film released on November 14, 2025.
It disappeared from cinemas within just four days.
The film drew inspiration from a Hollywood movie.
Its story followed a carefree protagonist unconcerned with money, food, or basic necessities.
This unconventional approach aimed for humor but failed to connect widely.
Harish Reddy Uppula marked his debut as director with Jigris.
He also handled the story, screenplay, and dialogues.
Esvaradithyaa worked as the cinematographer.
Syed Kamran composed the music.
Krishna Vodapalli produced the film.
The cast featured Dheeraj Aathrey, Ram Nithin, Krishna Burugula, and Mani Vaka.
Despite a fresh team and experimental tone, the film struggled theatrically.
Jigris faced tough competition during its release window.
Little Hearts released around the same time.
That comedy entertainer turned into a smash hit.
Jigris lost visibility amid the box office noise.
The film also faced delays in securing a digital streaming partner.
This prolonged absence dulled post theatrical buzz further.
Now, Jigris has quietly arrived on OTT platforms.
Sun NXT and OTTplay Premium stream the film digitally.
OTT could offer Jigris a second chance.
Viewers may discover its humor away from box office pressures.
Sometimes, small films bloom better at home screens.
