Bhumi Pednekar shared her thoughts, “OTT has been an incredible medium in my journey as an actor. Last year, I had the opportunity to find out, and it confirmed my belief that nothing beats good content. After all, I am a product of good storytelling. OTT allows me to be a part of diverse narratives and bring out my most authentic personality in the characters I portray. That’s why it’s so powerful and important to me. Growing up, it was always a dream to wear that iconic Black Lady, and it’s still a dream.”
Famous filmmaker Raj Nidimoru said “Filmfare was one of the first to recognize the potential of OTT, setting a benchmark for the industry. OTT has given actors a new way of telling stories. When this format came out, we eagerly adopted it, even putting our films on hold to create something new. For us, creative control is important – we strive to innovate and bring originality to our work. Even after 15 years, our passion for cinema and storytelling remains unwavering.”
Adding to this, Krishna DK said, “We now have a new crop of stars, and OTT has also helped actors gain wider recognition. This form of storytelling has allowed both actors and storytellers to explore new horizons, experiment with diverse narratives, and connect with the audience on a deeper level.
Recognizing shows released between August 1, 2023 and July 31, 2024, the grand awards ceremony is scheduled for December 1, 2024, promising an evening full of great style and celebration of innovation.
