Chapter 28: The New Age of Bharat's Cinema
Back in his office at Mythic Productions, Suraj sifted through a growing stack of proposals on his desk. Since Bloody Commando had completed its successful theater run, several OTT platforms and TV channels had expressed interest in securing streaming and broadcasting rights. Suraj felt a mix of excitement and disbelief; this was uncharted territory for him, both as the head of the company and as someone who still carried the perspective of his previous life.
The proposals were from some of the biggest names in Bharat's entertainment landscape. The most promising one was from Streamvaah, a rising OTT platform known for its strong regional content and blockbuster releases. They were willing to pay a premium for the rights, anticipating that Bloody Commando would draw in new subscribers and give them an edge against competitors.
Another proposal was from CinemaVerse, a highly popular streaming service offering both mainstream and indie films. Their catalog boasted a blend of classic and contemporary Bharat movies, and they saw Bloody Commando as an opportunity to appeal to younger audiences. Alongside them was OTT Bharat+, known for its exclusive, big-budget web series, hoping to cash in on the film's recent popularity.
On the TV side, Vishwa TV and Natak Channel were the top contenders. Vishwa TV, one of the oldest and most respected channels in Bharat, wanted to air the movie during a prime-time slot, aiming to captivate audiences with the film's unique blend of action and patriotism. Natak Channel, on the other hand, was a more youth-focused channel, known for its adventurous programming and vibrant style, and saw Bloody Commando as a perfect fit for their evening lineup.
Suraj leaned back in his chair, eyes scanning the proposals in front of him. The offers were lucrative, but it was more than just the money. These platforms and channels represented a whole new era of entertainment—one that was entirely foreign to him as someone who had lived in a previous life. In the Bharat he once knew, OTT platforms were only just starting to emerge, and most people still preferred traditional cinema or TV. But here, in this alternate Bharat of 2008, the digital world seemed miles ahead, with streaming services already well-established and influential.
"I can't believe how advanced Bharat is in this timeline," he thought to himself, amazed. "Back in 2008 in my previous life, OTT was just a whisper of an idea. But here, it's a thriving industry."
He realized that the rise of digital platforms wasn't just changing how movies were watched—it was reshaping the entire film industry. Distribution was now about reach and accessibility, bringing cinema to people across Bharat who might not have easy access to theaters. And with the rapid spread of the internet, especially in urban areas, these OTT platforms had become a powerful force.
Suraj called for a meeting with Kunal and a few other key members of the production team to discuss the proposals.
"Streamvaah and CinemaVerse both have strong offers for digital rights," Suraj explained, handing them copies of the documents. "Streamvaah's proposing a better price, but CinemaVerse has more subscribers. They're confident they can bring in more views and build a strong digital audience for the film. Then there's OTT Bharat+, which offers a unique marketing plan—they want to feature Bloody Commando as their flagship movie for next month."
Kunal nodded thoughtfully. "That's not a bad idea. OTT Bharat+ has a strong audience, and with that kind of placement, it could bring even more attention to Mythic Productions."
One of the team members, Amrita, chimed in. "And the TV channels? Vishwa TV's offer seems very solid. They have a massive reach, and their audience would appreciate the patriotic undertones of the movie. It could become a favorite for families across Bharat."
Kunal raised a good point. "But would it be better to release on OTT first and then move to TV later? The youth audience loves streaming, and they're more likely to spread the word on social media. We could build momentum with the OTT release and then move to TV, creating a second wave of excitement."
Suraj nodded, appreciating Kunal's insight. He turned to Amrita. "What do you think about focusing on OTT first?"
Amrita glanced at the proposals. "I agree. An exclusive streaming release could create a buzz, and once the excitement peaks, we shift to TV. It would also give Bloody Commando a long life, keeping it relevant for a longer period."
After some more discussion, they came to a decision. They would sign a deal with Streamvaah for a limited-time OTT exclusivity, allowing them to reach the growing digital audience. Once the streaming period ended, they'd move to Vishwa TV for a prime-time slot, ensuring the movie would reach audiences all across Bharat.
As the team finalized the decision, Suraj felt a renewed sense of pride. This was his first big negotiation as head of Mythic Productions, and he had navigated it well. Signing off on the deals, he realized just how much he'd adapted to this new Bharat—a Bharat where digital platforms had transformed the entertainment landscape and where Mythic Productions, once on the brink of collapse, was now making strategic moves to ensure its future.
Later that evening, after the paperwork was complete, Suraj returned to his office, scrolling through the response to the movie on StarGram. People were still raving about Bloody Commando, posting clips and screenshots of their favorite scenes, especially Kamal Singh's infamous post-credits scene laugh. The viral trend had taken on a life of its own, with people adding "#CommandoLaugh" to videos of themselves trying to imitate the sinister, spine-chilling laugh, often with humorous twists.
Suraj chuckled as he came across a video titled, "When your teacher catches you using your phone in class," followed by an exaggerated version of Kamal Singh's menacing laugh. Another short featured someone saying, "When you realize you've left the stove on all day," followed by the laugh and a dramatic zoom-in.
The memes had become a phenomenon, reaching beyond the movie itself and adding to its cultural impact. Suraj couldn't have asked for better free publicity, and he appreciated how the fans were having fun with the movie in ways he never anticipated.
With the deals locked in and the OTT release planned, he felt a sense of peace. Mythic Productions had come a long way, and it was on the verge of a revival that could carry on his parents' legacy and create something lasting for Aryan's future.
Looking at the playful memes and reading through the supportive comments, Suraj felt deeply connected to this alternate Bharat and to the life he had built. In this modern world of StarGram trends and streaming platforms, Mythic Productions had found its place again, and Suraj knew he was exactly where he needed to be.
