Mon Ampere OTT Release Date: The global entertainment industry has undergone a profound transformation due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting lockdowns, impacting not only content consumption and viewing patterns but also serving as a wellspring of creative inspiration for filmmakers. Mon Ampere, an indie Telugu film featuring actors, Zaheer Ahmed and GS Chalapathy, is born out of such innovative thinking.

Zaheer Ahmed, known for his work in contemporary theatre and dentistry, takes on the role of Karthik in the film. Portraying his on-screen father is GS Chalapathy, a Nandi award recipient recognised for his contributions to vernacular theatre. The Mon Ampere production team consists of film graduates who have completed their diplomas in film direction. Manoj Sri Harsha, the writer, director, and editor, also serves as the co-producer for this film.

The movie centres around a young person who is on the brink of healing from a broken heart and battling loneliness during a pandemic-induced lockdown. The main character, a corporate employee, develops feelings for a ghost that haunts his electronic devices. As he strives to deepen this unique and ethereal romance, he must confront his father's traditional values, navigate the easing of lockdown restrictions, and discover a means to stay connected with his otherworldly soulmate.

The creators of Mon Ampere have decided to release the film directly on a digital platform, using a unique support-refund approach. The movie will be available for viewing on watchmyfilm.com, powered by MovieSaints, starting June 3 at a price of Rs 99. Once you have watched the film, viewers have two options. If you select the dislike option, a refund of Rs 69 will be issued.

"Mon Ampere comes from the deep philosophical respect I have towards platonic romance and my immense admiration towards the digital shift. The film expresses the voice of new-age, i.e., the electronic and virtual age. I want to present two kinds of perspectives on the digital era, the one from the past and the one that's now. It is also a personal interest to depict a healthy romance that has to do with bond and mentalities rather than mere physicality," the director Manoj Sri Harsha shares.

Mon Ampere seeks to pave the way for a fresh wave of independent filmmaking in the Telugu industry through its ground-breaking release strategy. The film features Maneshh as the cinematographer, Varun as the sound designer, and Sandilya as the executive producer.
