Bimbisara OTT Release Date
As the film has done extremely well at box-office, now everyone is asking about its OTT release. The movie’s makers established agreements with OTT service Zee5.
Earlier, it was being said that the film would have its OTT streaming after 5 weeks of its theater release, but as the film turned out to be a big blockbuster, it seems the film took a bit longer to be available on Zee5. So wait for 21st of Oct, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
