Web channels have become a boon to film makers. If there are no takers you just drop them in the you tube that the is order of the day. Even if it is adult content people are using the web to show the movies.There are several short film makers who are making movies and releasing them on web and later becoming big directors for regular movies.
After running into trouble with Central Board of Film Certification, Balaji honcho Ekta Kapoor is planning to turn towards the web, in order to put out more adult content. This comes on the back of Ken Ghosh’s movie XXX, which she was producing, getting into trouble with the CBFC.
“After no help from the certification board, Ekta has planned to launch a new web channel to produce adult content,” says a source, who asserts Ekta seems to have cracked the code to putting out good ‘adult’ content using the web. Previously, Ken, who claimed he was trying to level up explicit content in Bollywood was left shocked at the board’s reaction to it.
While, the board had asked the makers to re-edit the film and reapply for certification, there doesn’t seem to be a ray of hope for the movie so far.
It’s to be seen if Ekta, taking XXX as the starting point, can capture the web market for adult content as well.
