Although the OTT platform of The TKA is yet to be announced, as per the recent interview of the film’s director Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, leading OTT platforms didn’t want to feature some terminology used in the film.
So, it can be construed from his interviews that, The Kashmir Files will not be released on any major OTT platforms like Netflix, Amazon, etc. As they have a global policy to not use certain terms, thereby we can guess that the filmmaker will have to go with the homegrown streaming platform Zee5 which is also the subsidiary of the TKA’s production house ZEE studios.
Though the streaming date is yet to be announced, The Kashmir Files is expected to come on the digital platform Zee 5 after some stay in the theatres (Probably by the end of April).
