Vicky Kaushal’s latest comedy-drama, Bad Newz, continues to maintain a successful theatrical run. After opening with a decent box office collection, the film has seen a steady increase in revenue. The trailer already generated significant buzz, and the positive box office performance has heightened anticipation among viewers. As the movie was recently released in theaters, OTT enthusiasts are now eagerly awaiting its digital streaming release.
When will Bad Newz be released on OTT?
Amazon Prime Video recently shared the poster of Bad Newz on X (formerly Twitter), hinting that the movie may be released on the streaming platform after its theatrical run. However, no specific digital premiere date has been announced yet. Following the trend in Indian cinema, the film is likely to be released on OTT platforms 45-60 days after its theatrical release.
Bad Newz is a comedy-drama directed by Anand Tiwari and produced by Amazon Prime, Leo Media Collective, and Dharma Productions. The film stars Vicky Kaushal as Akhil Chadha, Triptii Dimri as Saloni Bagga, and Ammy Virk as Gurbir Singh Pannu. Additionally, the supporting cast includes Neha Dhupia, Sheeba Chaddha, Faisal Rashid, and Guneet Singh, among others. On the technical front, Amar Mohile composed the music, Debojeet Ray handled the cinematography, and Shan Mohammed edited the film.
Bad Newz revolves around the rare medical condition of heteropaternal superfecundation. The story follows Saloni Bagga, who unexpectedly becomes pregnant after a one-night stand. Chaos ensues when she discovers she is carrying twins and is uncertain about the father’s identity—Akhil and Gurbir. The film shares a concept similar to the 2019 release of Good Newz.
As of now, Bad Newz has grossed around $3.5 million in India’s net box office collection. Overall, it will be interesting to see how much it earns by the end of its first week.
