Satya Dev\'s film Zebra, which released in November, received decent word of mouth from audiences. However, due to low pre-release hype and buzz, the film didn\'t perform well at the box office and ended up as an average venture overall. Now, Zebra is set to get a second chance to shine, as it prepares for its OTT release on Aha Video. The film\'s digital rights have been sold to Aha Video in both Telugu and Tamil languages, and it will start streaming from December 20.\r\nThe OTT release of Zebra will provide an opportunity for audiences who missed the film in theaters to catch it on the streaming platform. Zebra\'s release was accompanied by two other films, Mechanic Rocky and Devaki Nandana Vasudeva, both of which failed to make an impact at the box office. Mechanic Rocky, starring Vishwas Sen, was expected to provide a much-needed boost to the actor\'s career, but it ended up as a big disaster. Similarly, Devaki Nandana Vasudeva, starring Ashok Galla, also failed to impress audiences.\r\nThe OTT release of Zebra will be closely watched, as it will provide an indication of the film\'s appeal to a wider audience. With the rise of streaming platforms, OTT releases have become an important aspect of a film\'s overall performance. Zebra\'s streaming debut will be an opportunity for the film to reach a broader audience and potentially gain more traction.\r\nAs Zebra prepares for its OTT release, fans of Satya Dev and the film\'s cast and crew will be eagerly waiting to see how it performs on the streaming platform. With its decent word of mouth and average box office performance, Zebra has the potential to surprise audiences on OTT and emerge as a dark horse.
