MUMBAI: Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor starrer Bawaal is one of the most awaited films of the year. The film is directed by Nitesh Tiwari who has helmed hit films like Bhoothnath Returns, Dangal, and Chhichhore. Well, the expectations from Bawaal are quite high as Tiwari is known for making high-on content but entertaining films.

Bawaal was slated to release in theaters on 6th October 2023, however a recent report suggests that the film will be getting a direct-to-digital release on Amazon Prime Video. This report has not gone down well with the netizens, especially Varun Dhawan’s fans.

A netizen tweeted, “this is dumb. Varun is one of the few male stars in BW who gets decent B.O returns and this film looks exciting...with ZHZB success you'd think producers would be more confident releasing films in theaters plus Nitesh Tiwari has a good track record.” Another Twitter user commented, “makers know people will not tolerate Jhanvi's overacting in theaters but feel bad for Varun, he deserves better.”

One more netizen wrote, “Successfully managed to embarrass your fans for the nth time, well done man @Varun_dvn kudos.” Check out the tweets below...

The report of Bawaal coming directly on OTT has shocked everyone. However, let’s wait for an official announcement from the makers of the film.

This will be Varun’s second film to get a direct-to-digital release after Coolie No. 1 and Janhvi’s third OTT release.
