As the lockdown has left people homebound, OTT platforms have witnessed a sharp spike in the consumption of content. On one hand, with shoots across the country suspended, digital projects that were on floors are bound to be delayed. On the other hand, as they enjoy the undivided attention of viewers sans the competition posed by television that is churning out reruns of shows, some streaming platforms are considering advancing the release of their series. So, how are the big players charting the uncertain waters of the coming weeks?

Netflix and Amazon Prime are adhering to their India slate for the time being. A case in point being Manisha Koirala's Netflix film Maska that drops this Friday. Ask director Neeraj Udhwani how he completed the post-production in the current scenario, and he explains, "I delivered the film to them in the first week of January. As a rule, they ask for the material in advance because it then goes for an entire round of subtitling across the countries it is releasing in."
