The Lady Killer: Arjun Kapoor & Bhumi Pednekar Starrer Quietly Debuts As A FREE Watch On T-Series’ YouTube Channel – Why No Buzz?
The Lady Killer is one of those rare films where the behind-the-scenes drama overshadows the actual movie. Released in a limited number of theatres in November 2023, the film starring Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar has had a rough journey from the start.
With just 293 tickets sold on its opening day and a meagre box office gross of one lakh rupees, the film was a colossal flop. But that’s just the beginning of the story.
The Lady Killer Quietly Starts Streaming On YouTube Without Any Buzz
Surprisingly, T-Series, the production house behind the film, decided to quietly release The Lady Killer on their official YouTube channel. Without any significant promotion or fanfare, the film was made available to viewers this morning.
The release was so low-key that it went unnoticed by many until the production house dropped a countdown on their YouTube page just before the film’s premiere.
It’s unusual to see a film starring two well-known actors like Kapoor and Pednekar released in such a manner. But considering the troubled production history and the fact that the film is incomplete, it seems the filmmakers had little choice.
Now, fans of the stars and curious viewers can watch the movie for free on YouTube. Whether it’s worth your time is another question entirely, but at least the film has finally found its audience, even if it wasn’t in the way anyone expected.
The Film Was Released In Theatres With An Incomplete Cut
The movie was released in cinemas with an incomplete cut, a fact that director Ajay Bahl later confirmed. The production seemed doomed from the start, with the makers unable to finish the film or provide a complete product.
Despite the star power of Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar, the film struggled to find its footing. Audiences and critics alike were left puzzled as to why a film with such potential had been handled so poorly.
The film was released in an incomplete state, but no official reason was provided for this decision. Director Ajay Bahl has clarified that the issues were not related to the actors. He mentioned that the movie is missing significant portions of the script. About thirty pages from the 117-page screenplay were never filmed.
Key scenes, including the romance between Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar, and crucial psychological elements, were left out. Despite the challenges faced during production, Bahl emphasised that the difficulties were not due to the actors, who were reportedly a pleasure to work with.
With such a tumultuous production, it’s no surprise that The Lady Killer struggled to find a home on a major streaming platform. The uncertainty surrounding its release only added to the film’s tragic journey.
For months, there was no word on where or when audiences would be able to watch the film. Many assumed that the incomplete cut would never make it to a streaming service, and the film would be left to languish in obscurity.
