Indian Police Force's OTT release delayed?

The latest development on the Indian Police Force is that Rohit and the streaming platform have reportedly made a decision to delay the release.

About the change in plan, a source told the entertainment portal, While the series is ready for its launch, Rohit Shetty and team Amazon Prime have taken a strategic move to delay the series from the Diwali weekend. It's a decision taken in the best interest of the series, as the makers didn't want to clash with the on-going cricket World Cup. The digital conversations around the Diwali period will revolve around two things - Cricket World Cup and Tiger 3 - and Amazon is clear on not being the third choice of audience."
