The action-packed trailer of Shahid Kapoor’s Bloody Daddy was released today, that is May 24. The Ali Abbas Zafar directorial will start streaming exclusively on Jio Cinema. Soon after the first teaser of the film was dropped a few weeks ago, a section of fans and moviegoers requested the makers to give Bloody Daddy a big screen release. Speaking of the same, during the trailer launch event, Shahid Kapoor stated that it was “designed for OTT.”
Shahid asserted, “I saw a lot of comments when the teaser came out and you know, why aren’t you putting this out in the theatres? And trust me, we were all tempted. But this is designed for OTT, and it was meant to be for that kind of platform. So we’re very very fortunate that this film will be coming out right after the IPL when all the eyeballs are on the Jio Cinema and can’t wait to share the film with you guys.”
He further added that, “This is the first time we showed the trailer. I’m so glad it was not on phone and it was a nice big screen because that’s where it’s fun to see an action film and I hope people would be watching it on the biggest possible TV back home.”
Speaking about the film, filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar said, “We see a lot of dark crime thrillers in the West, but hardly any in India that are made at that level and intensity. Bloody Daddy breaks all stereotypes right from Shahid’s transformation into a ‘killing machine’ to being one of the first direct-to-OTT films to be created at this grand scale! Bloody Daddy is a hard-hitting out-and-out dark action thriller that promises raw and real action,” in a statement.
