- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,February 16 2022]
RJ and Youtuber Sahil Khattar, who made his Bollywood debut with the sports drama '83', is gradually proving himself to be a skilled and competent actor. His performance as a seriel killer and rapist in the Zee5 film '200' garnered immense appreciation from audience and crictics alike. This was the first OTT project for Sahil and recently he shared his experience of working on it.
He told a news outlet, My experience of working in ‘200’, my first OTT project, has been amazing. It was surreal to say it in one word. To play one of the deadliest serial killers and to actually be able to break so many stereotypes that ‘oh he is a funny guy, he is a YouTuber, don’t think he is going to be a great actor’ and getting 8/10 reviews made me content. I would not have asked for more.
Sahil then went on to speak about OTT and stated that this new distribution medium and easily coexist with cinema, television as well as radio. He said, The kind of content and concepts coming out is becoming a rage. People who have just delivered one web series as a hit, their careers are made. Earlier it used to happen when one has worked on big films but now we can only imagine what kind of penetration OTT has achieved. Thanks to all these networks and data packs, everything is now on OTT. OTT is not going to eat into any other industries be it TV, radio or big screen. All four of them will co-exist.
