As the curfew continues, many film producers have opted for an OTT release instead of stagnating. But OTT platforms have been choosy and are upto buying only quality content or mass hero films.

According to latest reports, producers of Prabhu Deva's cop action film named Pon Manickavel is trying hard from their side to make this film a direct OTT release. The talks are underway with few digital platforms to sell the rights.

The shooting of the film wrapped up long ago and it was supposed to release last pongal. But due to financial shortcomings the release date was postponed by the producers.

The film stars Prabhu Deva and Nivetha Pethuraj in lead roles along with Mahendran and Soori with D.Iman's music. It is directed by A. C. Mugil Chellappan. It is also notable that it is Prabhu Deva's 50th film.
