No Dubs In Hindi OTT Audience Feels Ignored

To make this inter-linguistic entertainment more smooth the OTT industry should have focused on dubbing a little bit more.

OTT Audiences are complaining that for most of the Malayalam movies, Hindi dubs are not available at all. They are readily dubbed to South Indian languages like Tamil, Telugu and Kannada but there is nothing for Hindi viewers.

Fortunately, English subtitles are there and a portion of the Hindi speaking people manage to watch these movies, but subtitles are not everybody’s cup of tea and they are not as convenient as dubs for an audience from another language.

It will be a win-win for both parties if the platforms start dubbing these moves and shows in Hindi. Audiences will be able to experience these stories in their own language and the channel will enjoy a higher traffic, and a higher subscriber base.
