Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world and the cinema houses were closed, there has been gluttony of Indian content on the OTT platforms. The other reason for the deluge is practical bypassing of the Censor Board for the content and in the name of artistic freedom, the writers and directors can vent their angst against anyone and anything and get away with it.
