“Premalu,” the blockbuster Malayalam romantic comedy featuring Naslen K Gafoor and Mamitha Baiju, turned out to be a big hit in Telugu with over 15 crores gross collections. The movie, including its dubbed versions, has grossed over 135 crores.
Now available on Aha with English subtitles for the Telugu audience and on Disney Plus Hotstar for Malayalam, Tamil, and Hindi viewers, “Premalu” offers a delightful experience for those who missed it in theaters.
Feedback from the OTT audience has been largely positive, with some considering it a fun ride while others find it slightly overrated, and more suitable for the nibba-nibbi generation.
Some became nostalgic remembering their internship days. A small section also felt the Telugu dubbing was not so good and preferred to watch it in the original Malayalam version.
Nevertheless, the comedy consistently draws laughs, and the lead actors’ charming chemistry resonates well with digital viewers. Hyderabadis particularly appreciate the film’s portrayal of the city’s nuances.
For many, “Premalu” is hailed as a good watch, praised for its humor, heartfelt moments, and stellar performances by the entire cast. The music adds to its charm.
Overall, the OTT audience gives “Premalu” a thumbs up for its breezy entertainment value.
