A few weeks ago, the makers of Indoo Ki Jawani took a leap of faith and released the film across theatres in the country. As Advani, in an interview told mid-day, the team had their expectations in check as theatres continue to function at half capacity. Mid-Day, in an interview with producers Niranjan Iyengar and Ryan Stephen, discussed how they weigh in on their decision in hindsight. Iyengar tells us, "We were aware of all the realities when T-Series, Emmay Entertainment and us decided to release Indoo theatrically. It was Electric Apples Entertainment's (EAE) first feature venture and it was planned as a theatrical film. It was a mutual decision to not wait any further and release the film. We are fortunate that we had the opportunity to release it in the cinemas as planned."
Evidently, the film spoke to their vision as content creators. "It is a film that has its heart in the right place and always appeals to us. Indoo speaks about society's judgemental nature regarding issues and it does so in a non-preachy, light hearted manner which really was what made us decide to produce it. As is the norm with most films Indoo's digital release will be soon. We will release it on Netflix. The release date depends on Netflix's slate for 2021," says Stephen.
