Filmmaker Ramenahalli Jagannatha believes that OTT platforms are a great opportunity for emerging directors. He credits the revenue share from online streaming platforms for helping him sustain after his first film. While some movies may not find success in theaters, they could thrive on OTT platforms. Jagannatha is excited to start shooting his second project, "Theertharoopa Thandeyavarige," a family drama exploring a single parent's love for his son. His storytelling is heavily influenced by literature, particularly works by authors like Poornachandra Tejaswi, SL Bhyrappa, and Shivaram Karanth. Despite the challenges, Jagannatha is committed to bringing emotionally-driven stories to life on screen. He explains that new projects take time to materialize as various factors need to align, notably the business aspects. The scripting stage is just the beginning, and constant refinement is necessary throughout the filmmaking process.
