Kiran Abbavaram and Sri Gouri Priya’s romantic drama Chennai Love Story, directed by Ravi Namburi, will begin streaming on SonyLIV from August 21. The film, which had a decent theatrical run, will be available in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam, giving it a wider OTT reach.
The film follows Steven Shankar, an orphan from Nellore who moves to Chennai to become a filmmaker, and Nivedita, whose past relationship complicates their romance. m9.news reports that OTT audiences are often more critical than theatregoers, and the film’s weak second-half writing may face sharper scrutiny on streaming.
Reports suggest OTT will judge the film more harshly than theatres, but that ignores how streaming also revives films with strong emotional cores. Chennai Love Story's multi-language release could help it find new fans if the love story clicks. The real test is whether the screenplay holds up under home-viewing scrutiny rather than whistles and cheers.
