Malli Pelli is one of the most talked about films in recent times. The film deals with the real life relationship between Naresh, who is already married thrice, and Pavitra Lokesh who are in a live-in relationship as of now. The film is their biopic and was directed by MS Raju and released on the 6th of May, 2023.
Well, the news is that Amazon Prime has bought the streaming rights of the film for a fancy price. Though the film did not make much money with its theatrical screening, the makers landed in profits thanks to the OTT deal from Amazon Prime.
The day one openings of the film were decent and the reviews for the family drama were not that bad. But after two days of its release, Malli Pelli slowed down at the box office. Now, the news is that Malli Pelli will be out on OTT either on the 24th or 25th of June.
The makers tried to negotiate for an early OTT release date for more money but Amazon Prime video did not show much interest in the deal and hence, the film will be out after a gap of one month after its release on may 26th, 2023.
Naresh played a film star who falls in love with his co-star played by Pavitra Lokesh. MS Raju showcased the drama in a gritty manner in this film which also had Jayasudha in a key role. Malli Pelli was also quite special as it was the late Sarath Babu's last film of his career. He passed away just days before the release.
The film's promotions were carried out in a bold manner as both Naresh and Pavitra gave controversial statements about their relationship in all their interviews and gave much feed to the media and made headlines everyday.
