Biggest OTT Star's Next: Promising, But No Buzz!

Mirchi 9 1 year ago

Manoj Bajpayee is all set to impress the audience for another time with a new film titled Despatch. While a release date is yet to be confirmed, it has already premiered at the MAMI Film Festival this year.

Manoj has become a popular name in the world of OTT, specifically after the COVID-19 pandemic. The good news is that Despatch will be released directly on Zee5.

Notably, the viewers at MAMI are already impressed with the film's unique concept and flawless performances.

Chief Business Officer of Zee5, Manish Kalra, said in a statement that they were "thrilled" after looking at the response. Manish added that the success has once again proved the platform's commitment to bring "original content" that would provide entertainment.

On the other hand, Manoj Bajpayee recalled his experience working in Despatch, saying that he is looking forward to its OTT release. Director Kanu Behl additionally praised Manoj, saying that his character would help the audience connect with the narrative.

The basic premise focuses on a journalist who is struggling due to the popularity of the digital world. However, things take a turn for him when he decides to expose a smuggling racket.

As mentioned, Manoj is a personality that is known to everyone today, specifically those who have watched The Family Man. Even if the content is average, Manoj saves everything with his performance.

The veteran actor received a lot of praise last year for his screen presence in Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai, which was also released on Zee5.

But a minor issue still exists as we have seen in most cases that certain films and TV shows gain recognition only after people speak positively about them on different platforms.

Everyone does not have access to OTT and they come to a certain decision only if they find that the content is up to the mark.

It seems like the same thing will happen with Despatch. However, considering the popularity of Manoj on OTT, it should turn out to be more successful than his previous projects.
