The highly anticipated romantic entertainer 'Hi', featuring a fresh on-screen pairing of Lady Superstar Nayanthara and rising actor Kavin, has confirmed its digital streaming partner. The film's post-theatrical OTT rights have been officially acquired by the leading streaming platform ZEE5, securing its digital future even before the theatrical release date is announced. The announcement came as Nayanthara celebrated her 22nd year in cinema, unveiling the first look posters that instantly raised expectations for the project.
Directed by debutant Vishnu Edavan, an alumnus of Lokesh Kanagaraj's directorial team, 'Hi' is touted to be a feel-good romantic comedy that aims to be a wholesome family entertainer. The film’s technical crew includes Cinematographer Rajesh Shukla and editor Philomin Raj, with music by Jen Martin. The fact that an OTT giant like ZEE5 has secured the rights early on highlights the immense confidence in the film’s commercial appeal and the star power of the Nayanthara-Kavin combination. As filming continues in and around Chennai, the 'Hi' OTT release on ZEE5 is expected to draw huge viewership after its run in theaters.
