The makers of the Malayalam film Once Upon A Time in Kochi have decided to reschedule its theatrical release. The action follows the strike that the Kerala Film Exhibitors United Organisation (FEUOK) has declared. Originally scheduled for release on February 23, the film is directed by Nadirshah. The new release date has not been disclosed by the makers.
FEUOK to stop the release of Malayalam films
FEUOK declared that they would be temporarily stopping the release of Malayalam films from February 23. They went on strike as a result of the producers' inability to work with the Kerala Film Exhibitors United Organisation to resolve the agreement's violations regarding the release of films on OTT platforms following a 42-day theatrical run.
