Prabhas excited about OTT release of Hindi version of ‘Salaar’
Mumbai: The makers of Prabhas and Prithviraj starrer ‘Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire’ are all set to release the Hindi version of the film on OTT. Streaming platform Disney+Hotstar broke the news to fans on Instagram and captioned it, “Tumne bula aur Salaar chala aaya. #SalaarHindi streaming from 16th February.
Sharing his excitement, Prabhas said, “I am absolutely thrilled to start the year celebrating the success of Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire. The journey of making this film has been incredible and an emotional rollercoaster for us. The film is coming now.” Hindi and its unparalleled reach on Disney+Hotstar, I can’t wait for audiences around the world to see this story. My fans in North and Central India have been rioting on social media to know when Salaar will be streaming in Hindi and here it is for all of them, here you go.”
Director-writer Prashanth Neel said, “I have always been a fan of rebellion stories filled with power-packed action and impressive music. However, with Salaar, my aim was to create a story where every hero is also a villain in some way or the other.” Whether you echo Vardha’s struggles or Deva’s strength, at the end of the day, both are burdened by their own battles. That, for me, is what makes Salaar different – a story that will connect with you. Now that the film is coming to Disney+Hotstar Hindi, we can’t wait to take it to new horizons and find another set of audiences to connect with the story and I’m personally very excited to see it!”
Prithviraj also shared his thoughts and said, “Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire is a script I couldn’t refuse and when audiences watch the film in Hindi on Disney+ Hotstar, they will know why. It’s a brilliant script, complemented by a brilliant cast, excellent direction and cinematography, which is out of this world. I never step into a project just to test the waters; I do it because I fall in love with the story. I put my heart and soul into Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire and now I can’t wait for audiences around the world to watch this story on Disney+Hotstar!”
