Directly published on Netflix on april 4, The Test, which was directed by S. Sashikanth and starred Siddharth, Nayanthara, and madhavan in the key roles, has been met with a dismal reception from viewers. The Test is ranked third in this week's Netflix Non-English Top 10 trending movies list, while Vicky Kaushal's highly regarded Chhaava is ranked fourth.
Some internet users were disappointed by this, stating that it appears awful that Chhaava, a purported masterpiece, is lagging behind The Test in the list of popular songs. Some even questioned the taste of OTT audiences and called The Test one of the worst films in recent memory.
Trade analysts explained, however, that the release pattern is mostly to blame for this result. following an eight-week theatrical run, Chhaava was only made available for streaming on Netflix on april 11 following its february 14 theatrical debut. The Test, on the other hand, had a new edge in terms of platform viewing because it was a straight OTT release. Whether the Test will lead Chhaava on Netflix or if Chhaava will pick up steam in the upcoming weeks and overtake it in terms of viewing is still up in the air.
