Akkineni Naga Chaitanya is balancing two big-ticket films while recently taking on the new personal venture with marriage. In addition to this busy schedule in his films, he has successfully dipped into OTT content making a debut on the digital front.
Chaitanya starred in the highly successful horror series Dhootha on Amazon Prime Video, directed by Vikram K. Kumar. His performance in this series earned widespread acclaim and highlighted his adaptability and range as an actor.
In a recent appearance on Rana’s Talk Show, Chaitanya discussed his experience working in the OTT space. Unlike the typical pressures of film releases—such as booking schedules, promotional activities, and box office expectations—he shared how the OTT environment offers a more laid-back and enjoyable working atmosphere. He revealed that working on Dhootha was a refreshing experience, free from the usual stress associated with traditional film projects.
While some may feel that film actors should stay away from digital platforms, Chaitanya believes the entertainment industry is evolving. He emphasized that collaborations across various platforms are becoming more common, making it an exciting time for artists. The absence of release-date stress in the OTT space, according to him, further enhances the creative experience. Chaitanya assured fans that he would continue to explore more OTT opportunities in the future.
