OTT
platforms
have
made
themselves
a
significant
part
in
the
entertainment
industry,
especially
due
to
the
push
given
by
the
COVID-19
pandemic,
which
caused
shutdown
of
theatres
for
months.
OTT
is
not
only
changing
the
game
in
terms
of
how
cinema
is
viewed,
but
also
other
dynamics
that
have
always
played
an
important
role
in
the
industry
such
as
box
office
numbers,
stars
featuring
in
the
films,
and
so
on.
Kirti
Kulhari
is
of
the
opinion
that
no
one
saw
the
change
with
regard
to
OTT
coming,
and
this
has
made
many
people
in
the
industry
reconsider
their
career
plans.
She
feels
that
OTT
is
something
everybody
will
dabble
with
in
the
days
to
come.
"OTT
has
changed
the
face
of
entertainment
in
India.
Nobody
saw
it
coming.
OTT
is
not
just
at
par
with
Bollywood
but
actually
marched
ahead
especially
in
the
corona
times.
It
has
got
a
major
push
because
of
the
whole
situation
.
People,
everyone
from
top
to
bottom
are
reconsidering
their
choices,
their
whole
career
plans.
OTT
is
going
to
be
a
big
part
of
their
plans,
everyone's
plans
in
the
times
to
come," said
Kirti
while
speaking
to
Hindustan
Times.
She
added,
"It
is
always
nice
to
get
out
of
your
comfort
zone.
It
has
pushed
people
in
ways
they
don't
want
to
be
pushed
when
you
talk
about
creativity
or
a
creative
field
that's
the
only
way
to
kind
of
go
about
in
this
kind
of
industry.
I
am
glad
OTT
has
done
that.
Internationally,
it
is
in
a
way
leading
and
I
can
see
a
similar
change
happening
in
the
country."
Kirti
herself
has
been
a
part
of
web
projects
like
Four
More
Shots
Please!
and
Bard
Of
Blood.
Four
More
Shots
Please!,
which
also
stars
Bani
J,
Sayani
Gupta
and
Maanvi
Gagroo,
even
received
an
international
Emmy
nomination
this
year
under
the
Best
Comedy
Series
category.
Kirti
will
next
be
seen
in
The
Girl
On
The
Train,
a
mystery
thriller
drama,
which
also
stars
Parineeti
Chopra.
The
film's
release
has
been
postponed
due
to
the
pandemic.
