Mumbai Saga: John Abraham Not Too Happy About Film's Direct OTT Release?

It was mid last year that reports of John Abhaham and Emraan Hashmi starrer Mumbai Saga's OTT release had been doing the rounds. It was being said that makers are in talks with Amazon Prime since theatres had no possibility of opening anytime soon. It is now that the film's release on Prime has been somewhat official, even though a statement is to be made. Trade sources have stated that the film has been acquired by the OTT giant for a good Rs. 80 crores. But it looks like John Abraham isn't too happy about the development.

When trade analysts and Bollywood insiders had tweeted about the film's release on Amazon Prime, many Tweeps felt that the decision was wrong and a Sanjay Gupta film of such scale definitely deserved a big-screen release, since it could have been a crowd puller. John Abraham happened to like one such tweet that called Mumbai Saga's OTT release 'worst mistake'. See the screengrab here:

Well, looks like his displeasure is quite evident, isn't it? We wonder what Sanjay Gupta or Emraan Hashmi or the rest of the cast's reaction would be like! John would, however, have a big screen release this year with Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathan, where he would play the antagonist. He will also clash with Salman Khan on Eid with Satyameva Jayate 2.
