In a striking development, the crime thriller is sought-after by streaming giants owing to its genre and potential. The latest talk of the town is that the film's direct OTT release is now a possibility with several OTT platforms making calls to the producers of 'Shekar' for rights. If something is finalized, the film will skip a theatrical release.

Featuring also Aathmeeya Rajan, Muskaan Kubchandhani of 'George Reddy' fame, comedian Abhinav Gomatam, and others, the film is a crime thriller. The much-in-favor movie among OTT players is a superior remake of 'Joseph' (Malayalam). Dr. Rajasekhar's performance is expected to be top notch. He has been back to sincere form since 'PSV Garuda Vega'.

Produced by Pegasus Cinecorp, Taurus Cinecorp, Sudhakar Impex IPL, and Tripura Creations, the film's release strategy is currently a work in progress. A call will soon be taken by producers Beeram Sudhakara Reddy, Shivani Rajashekar, Shivathmika Rajashekar, and Boggaram Venkata Srinivas after an assessment of the situation, commercial, and other aspects.
