The rom-com earned nearly ₹9 crore on its first day, and its weekend collections are pegged at ₹34 crore.

 Pati Patni Aur Woh is Kartik Aryan’s best opening day ever. Luka Chuppi’s first day collections stood ₹8 crore whereas that of Pyaar ka Punchnama 2 and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety were at ₹6 crore. Both these movies went on to be superhits that established him in the industry. He is one of the busiest actors today and bagged the sequels of two hit franchises — Love Aaj Kal 2 and Bhool Bhulaiya 2. Pati Patni Aur Woh itself is a remake of BR Chopra’s 1978 film where Abhinav Chintu Tyagi struggles to balance his married life and an affair. Last week, Ashutosh Gowariker’s magnum opus Panipat starring Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Kapoor and Kriti Sanon-- also released. The movie which depicts the third battle of Panipat in 1761 however registered a slow start. It made ₹4 crore on its opening day and ₹5.78 crore on the second and its total weekend collections were at ₹18 crore. Panipat’s total box office collection is almost the half of Pati Patni Aur Woh. Panipat narrates the story of Marathas and Ahmad Shah Abdali — the ruler of Afghanistan.

Mumbai, May 11 () Actor Aparshakti Khurana says the nationwide lockdown happened at a crucial time in his career but right now he's adapting to the changes and adjusting to taking script narrations online.The 32-year-old actor said with the coronavirus pandemic still looming over, the industry is understandably uncertain about resuming shootings."Everybody's shoot has been affected, it is something which is totally out of our control. That's not something I am really worried about right now. We all can wait. "People's health and lives are a lot more important than shoots. So we are just waiting for the right time to start the shoot," Aparshakti told .Fresh off the success of "Pati Patni Aur Woh" and his appearance in this year's "Street Dancer", Aparshakti was gearing up for his next, "Helmet". The actor said though the pandemic and the subsequent lockdown happened at a "very weird time" in his career, he isn't disheartened."I've been at a different stage in my career, in a transitioning phase. But all these things can wait. I've waited for my career even when COVID-19 had not happened.The pandemic is a very valid reason for everything to come to a standstill. I won't mind starting my journey again post this, whenever we resume shooting." For now, he is adjusting to the new normal."I've started taking video narrations and it is quite bizzare. But that might be the case for the next few days. So I am getting used to this new way of listening to scripts," he added.Currently, the "Stree" actor is elated with the response coming in for his T-Series single "Teri Yaari", for which he collaborated with Millind Gaba and King Kaazi.Aparshakti said he had approached T-Series with his own track when the opportunity of teaming up for "Teri Yaari" happened and he came quickly on board for the song which celebrates friendships."We shot this before the world came to a standstill, before we went into the lockdown. It's quite bizzare that right after that we haven't been able to shoot. But thankfully the last thing we shot has really been fruitful and the response has been really good. "This was an appropriate time to release the song, people are missing their friends and loved ones and may be that's why it has been impactful. The kind of feedback, response we have received is overwhelming," he added. JUR SHDSHD

For a country of billion people addicted to video and cheap internet plans — it is not an impressive number. According to CLSA data, not only have its daily active user number dropped by 35% since last January, it’s only a 10% of traffic that the top OTT player in India gets at over 16 million — that is Hotstar, owned by the <keyword id="149163" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Walt-Disney-Company">Walt Disney Company</keyword>. In fact, Netflix is only ahead of SunNXT, a platform that offers regional content. However, it’s not like Netflix isn’t trying. Last year, the streaming platform said it will invest ₹3,000 crore and produce 30 original shows. Some of them — like Sacred Games — have become international hits. Yet, it is lagging even behind platforms like Jio TV and Airtel TV. This is despite the fact that Indian platforms might not be as intuitive as Netflix’s algorithm, which works hard to suggest the ‘right kind of content’. Most of Indian platforms are also crude and rough to navigate. Yet, they are winning over Netflix because of their legacy content. For example, ZEE live streams all of its 45 channels on the platform and so does Hotstar. All the popular superhit shows like daily soaps in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu — that were only available through cable — are now available for streaming throughout the day. These platforms have found the sweet spot to capture the bulk of TV consumers that lie above and beyond the millennials. With content already in place, these TV channels simply shifted to digital at low costs. They are able to pass on these cost benefits to their customers as well. “With 70% of India’s mobile data consumption on video, OTTs are likely to lead the digital wave and provide broadcasters with an alternate medium to monetise content besides TV,” the CLSA report said.

ZEE5, SunNXT, Hotstar and Amazon Prime are ramping up faster on content at a speed that Netflix is unable to keep up with. “These OTTs have about four times Netflix’s movie titles,” said the report. ZEE5 has a library of 3,147 movies and 1,153 shows out of which 70 are original web series. On top of that, it costs less than a third of Netflix’s cheapest plan at ₹199. SunNxt, a popular OTT platform in South India, also has 390 shows and 4,087 movies and cost 75% lesser than its cheapest plan at ₹199. As a result, investors have stopped considering Netflix a threat. “Consequently, even as Netflix service evolves in India, with unlikely widespread adoption we do not see it as a threat and retain BUY ratings on Zee and Sun TV,” says the report. Hotstar and ZEE5 are also going fast and hard creating original shows and employing new age film-makers to capture the target audience of Netflix — the urban consumer. However, the CSLA report excluded the number of shows they have in English and other foreign languages like The Witcher, Money Heist or Narcos - which are very successful. “Netflix is also not choosing to chase the mass market,” said <keyword id="824043" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Business-Insider">Business Insider</keyword> sources on the condition of anonymity. In spite of that, Netflix is still lagging behind in local content. It’s newly released Ghost Stories and Karan Johar’s What the Love failed to impress the audience. The Prime theory Netflix probably will never be able to replicate the diversity and depth of homegrown OTT platforms. However, it is also failing to compete with a global entrant like itself — Amazon Prime Video. While Amazon realised that it might never build a library worth thousands, it can generate interest by showing the latest movie releases within a few weeks. For example, Pati, Patni and Woh, a superhit movie that was released in December 2019 and can now be streamed on Amazon Prime Video. The Jeff Bezos-owned platform is also quick to stream new South Indian movie releases capturing real movie buffs and providing a ‘premium’ like feeling to audiences. This, combined with a wide variety of originals that are both Indian and international, along with Hollywood movies and series has caught the fancy of viewers. It also helps that Prime Video is much cheaper than Netflix. Even though it did double its annual price to ₹999 last year, its introductory price was ₹599. It is also actively building a library of old and hit movies across languages on its platform and promised to invest $1 billion on new shows. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none; width: 468pt; table-layout: fixed;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Subscription </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Netflix </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Hotstar </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">ZEE5 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Amazon Prime Video </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Monthly </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">From ₹ 199 to ₹800 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹299 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹99 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹129 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Yearly </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹6000-9000 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹999 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹999 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹999 </td></tr></tbody></table> As of now, it looks like Netflix is making hay with its few subscribers and premium charges. In 2019, Netflix earned twenty times more money per user than the top player Hotstar or any other OTT services. It reported a monthly average order value of ₹640 per user whereas AOU for Hotstar remained at ₹376 per customer,<a href="https://qz.com/india/1656626/indian-users-spend-more-on-netflix-than-hotstar-says-kalagato/"> reported Quartz. </a> Netflix reported an increase of <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/internet/netflix-revenue-soars-700-on-desi-content-marketing/articleshow/71999990.cms?from=mdr">700% growth in its India revenue in 2019 </a>to ₹466.7 crore. It reported a profit of ₹5.1 crore. Whereas, Hotstar’s<a href="https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/hotstars-loss-rises-in-fy19-netflix-reports-small-profit/1761771/"> losses widened by 42.5% to ₹554.38 crore</a>.

The Game of Thrones However, almost all streaming majors are coming after Netflix’s urban consumer fast and wide. Hotstar, which rules the Indian OTT market in India — like Amazon — diversified its content ranging from news to live cricket matches and also streams the popular HBO original Game of Thrones. The emergence of these new platforms in a crowded market have spoiled Indian consumers for choice. That is what probably caused Netflix <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/entertainment/news/netflix-has-focused-on-india-as-a-key-area-for-growth-exclusive-data-tells-the-story-of-its-progress-/articleshow/71467026.cms">to lose 0.2 million users in 2019</a>, especially since it charges a premium for international shows. Meanwhile, Netflix’s command over English content might also reduce as international competition increases in India. “Other global OTT platforms such as Apple TV+, which launched in September 2019, have ramped up in India, with differentiated content (mainly Hollywood movies); while the service is free for Apple users for a year; for others, plans start at ₹99 per month,” the CLSA report said. Globally, Netflix is popular for making its viewers ‘addicted’ and has also faced the flak because of it. But, Indians have been addicted to TV and its homegrown TV shows which are not necessarily brainy nor thought-provoking. Netflix is trying to bring in as much desi content by deepening relationships with leading production houses such as Dharmatic Entertainment and Red Chillies. In this space, it is still on the way to achieve what many TV backed streaming platforms already did. With multiple languages; a wide variety of tastes and a cornucopia of content — India is a tough market. Not to mention that its consumers are value conscious. On the top of that, Netflix has chosen to place a premium with ‘little’ on offer making it an easy option for a large number of Indians to ignore - for now.
