Not only the owner of Muthuram cinemas, this is the mindset of every theatre owner in Tamilnadu. Using this lockdown opportunity, online streaming platforms are looking for all possible ways to conquer the Tamil film industry. Reports suggested that they even tried to buy “Master” and “Soorarai Pottru” but failed as the makers of them felt that theatrical release will be apt for their products.
