IF Article Saakk might go OTT - Page 2

Don't really know about budgets in ott but if I am correct hotstar has a new section quix for indian ott (basically competition with kekta ott type of content). You can find some old itv shows (not the regulars) like ek Hasina also which I think have been edited to reduce length. The show has a readymade fan base. This would be a good promotion opportunity for other content too. But...idk. Tbh not sure as no clue on budgets. Plus honestly from my end, I would prefer ott for a couple of months for a more logical conclusion then itv kinds and ott would force them to stick to a better storyline as opposed to itv. I think we all have seen the good storyline potential here but again tbh no good content lasts years, it all turns negative if it's stretched too long so just a little longer maybe. Let's see. Hopefully.

I too would want 2/3 months with proper story planned and conclude it rather than stretch it to a level where negativity eventually takes in..that is if there is no option left for tv slot change

Till how long will sitara's dictatorship last... hopefully in future SAAKK jaisi story ka aisa anzaam na ho... tab tak no sitara's show for me

😆 Goa mein Hilton mein rukne jitna budget toh tha inka... Aur phir jitna ab pending hai... Fans jitna trend kiye... Utna charity bhi denge na Hotstar ko aur PH ko... Tension na lo... Sab manage ho jayega😆

Manage Ho jaaye toh hi achha hai😆

Aur Hilton mein jo ruka tha woh toh channel ne bhi contribute kiya tha😆

Lekin OTT mein aane ke chances bohut kum hai...aur agar aa bhi gaya toh budget bohut low hoga...long run mein chalne ke liye they have to compromise on cast and crew😕

Long run meaning? 1 more year..

Shifting to ott won't be good. Waha show jyada samay tak reh nhi paayega. Don't you think our show atleast deserves a good time slot for its amazing story. SAAKK can make a change to the ghisi piti saas bahu drama they serve us. Why does such a great content needs to shift anywhere so that koi bhi aira gaira aa ke uski jagah le le.

Its just my personal opinion... but our show deserves its due respect and should not be shifted anywhere

If that's the only way to save it then?

I agree with u totally. It deserves to be on tv. But if ott takes it up why not. They have a great team to be able to find a good closure in 3 months. We can have lot of grt moments in 3 months. So if it is even short lived it is still worth it. Now the budgeting is an issue. I wish it were not but.....

That is the real problem. But then hotstar has things like quickie episodes. To me that is not grt content like their proper web series like out of love, hostages, criminal justice. So if they squander money on some average content. Then why not on something good. I think hotstar run might be good. Even if for for a month more. So yeah.....

That's purely my opinion.

Maine kisi source se pucha hai. Unka scene yeh hai ki woh kahi bhi shift hone ke liye taiyaar hai 😆, unko bas apna show run karna hai...jo SP nahi hone de rha.. 😆

Exactly! They must have some budget for ott! Also, the ott series they have on quix don't look low quality in terms of sets or anything. Not sure though. Honestly won't mind giving up on apshagun for the constraints on budget! All even I want is a planned story even if it's for a couple of months. The show deserves that! And if you know you have time for a couple of months you will plan the storyline accordingly. And speed has been their forte always😆

Are 1 year is too long … 2/3 months mein story finish kar dena chaahiye as if it is 1 more year the story will lose essence. Also hope there is no lockdown for the next 2 months
