"Just a few months ago, OTT rights were considered highly profitable for Malayalam film producers. However, this seems to have changed. There are currently no buyers for the OTT rights of the immensely successful blockbuster 'Manjummel Boys' due to the producers' asking price of ₹20 crore," Pillai tweeted. He questioned whether the "OTT bubble" has burst.
