Directed by Jay Krishnan, who helmed the original as well, we hear that the supernatural horror remake has apparently been titled- ‘Dybbuk’. As per the latest buzz, the movie will reportedly have a direct-to-digital release.
According to TOI, the makers have supposedly sold the movie rights to an OTT giant for a whopping amount of Rs 36 CRORES! The movie is expected to be released this year.
The report further suggests that the makers had initially opted for a theatrical release. However, given the current pandemic situation, they chose to have an OTT release in order to maximize their returns.
