The makers of Unni Mukundan-starrer Marco, billed as the most violent Indian film, recently took to refute rumours about the film’s OTT release. The producers said they have “not signed any agreements or confirmed any deals with any OTT platforms” yet.
A note posted on social media read, “We would like to address recent rumors circulating regarding the OTT release of our film Marco. Let us clarify that as of now, we have not signed any agreements or confirmed any deals with any OTT platforms. Any claims or news stating otherwise are entirely fake and misleading.”
It further read, “Marco was created as a cinematic experience, and we are thrilled to see audiences enjoying the film in theaters. The movie is still running successfully on the big screen, and we strongly encourage you to watch it in theaters to experience the intensity, visuals, and sound design the way it was meant to be experienced.”
The makers concluded by saying, “If and when any decisions regarding an OTT release are finalized, we will officially share the news with everyone through our verified platforms. Until then, we kindly request that everyone refrain from spreading or believing in fake news about the film’s OTT release. We deeply value the love and support you’ve shown for Marco so far. Let’s continue to celebrate the film by enjoying it at your nearest theaters. Once again, thank you for standing by us, and we promise to keep you updated on all official developments.”
Marco hit screens in Kerala on December 20. Though the film opened to poor reviews, it found patronage beyond Kerala in the following weeks. The movie has crossed the Rs 100 crore mark in India.
