The Telugu crime thriller film “Drive,” featuring Aadhi Pinisetty in the lead role, is set to expand its reach to another streaming platform. Released on December 12 last year alongside “Akhanda-2,” the film marked Aadhi’s return to Telugu cinema after a significant hiatus. Produced by Anand Prasad under the Bhavya Creations banner, the movie has been directed by Jenuse Mohamed and stars Malayalam beauty Madonna Sebastian as the female lead.
<p”Despite the buzz surrounding its release, “Drive” failed to resonate with audiences in theaters, garnering a lukewarm response. However, the film found a second chance as it began streaming on Amazon Prime Video, where it is available in multiple languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. This multilingual availability has opened up the film to a broader audience, allowing fans of different languages to experience its narrative.
In an exciting development for its viewers, the film is now set to premiere on yet another OTT platform. Aha Video, a popular streaming service, recently announced via a tweet that “Drive” will be available on its platform starting January 30. This strategic move by Aha aims to attract more viewers to the film, which delves into themes of cyber crimes and hacking.
The film’s tagline, “Every secret has a price. And someone is always watching,” hints at the gripping narrative that unfolds. It suggests a storyline filled with suspense and intrigue, appealing to fans of the crime thriller genre. With Aadhi Pinisetty’s strong performance and the direction of Jenuse Mohamed, “Drive” promises to deliver an engaging experience for those who tune in.
This announcement comes as a significant boost for “Drive,” which has struggled to find its footing since its theatrical release. Aha’s decision to include the film in its lineup is a testament to the platform’s commitment to showcasing diverse content and supporting regional cinema. As the release date approaches, both Aha and the film’s creators are hopeful that this new streaming opportunity will breathe new life into “Drive,” attracting viewers who may have missed it during its initial run.
As audiences eagerly await January 30, “Drive” stands as a reminder of the evolving landscape of film distribution, where streaming platforms play a crucial role in bringing stories to viewers beyond traditional theaters. With its intriguing premise and the allure of an engaging crime thriller, “Drive” may yet find its audience in the digital realm, proving that sometimes a second chance is all a film needs to thrive.
