Ended partnership with Netflix india due to differences
According to media reports, the partnership between Clean Slate Films and Netflix has ended due to creative differences and budget concerns. Reports indicate that the end of their collaboration has left completed films like anushka Sharma's 'Chakda Express', a biopic on cricketer Jhulan Goswami and Vijay Verma and Trupti Dimri's 'Afghani Snow' in the works.
The absence of these films increased the concern
The OTT recently announced a diverse lineup of indian content. However, the absence of 'Chakda Express' and 'Afghani Snow' from the announcement raised concerns. These concerns were further heightened by reports of a broken link of the placeholder card for anushka Sharma's film and a post-production halt for 'Afghani Snow'.
Plan to buy movies again from Netflix
Similar incidents have happened before with abhishek Bachchan's 'Bob Biswas' and abbas Mustan's 'Penthouse', where Netflix withdrew post-production support. Whereas 'Bob Biswas' was released on ZEE5. Reports suggest that Clean Slate Filmz plans to buy back the films from Netflix to explore alternative platforms for distribution.
