Detective Ujjwalan on OTT
According to several reports, including a buzz shared by AB George, the film is set to make its digital debut on the OTT platform Netflix. However, it seems that the movie is taken up by the digital streaming giant only due to its connection to Minnal Murali.
As per the ongoing rumors, Netflix, which is usually reluctant to take up Malayalam movies for streaming, has decided to buy the rights for Dhyan Sreenivasan starrer. This is speculated due to the movie sharing the same cinematic universe as the Tovino Thomas starrer.
While it is also being speculated that ZEE Network has bought the television rights for the film, an official confirmation about its digital and tv debut are yet to be made.
