Disney+ Hotstar Teases ‘Bollywood Ki Home Delivery’ With Alia Bhatt, Akshay Kumar, 3 Others


Alia Bhatt. Akshay Kumar. Ajay Devgn. Varun Dhawan. Abhishek Bachchan — those are the big names part of Disney+ Hotstar's next big announcement, slated for Monday 4:30pm, the streaming service announced on its social media handles over the weekend. Disney+ Hotstar hasn't said what it's about but given that it's titled “Bollywood Ki Home Delivery” and it's amid a pandemic that's keeping theatres shut across India, it's likely that it's about Bollywood movies that are releasing straight on streaming. Reports from earlier in June have claimed as much.



According to a Bollywood Hungama report, Devgn is involved in two films that are headed to Disney+ Hotstar, both under his Ajay Devgn FFilms banner. The first is the Devgn-starrer war film Bhuj: The Pride of India, while the second is the Bachchan-starrer biopic The Big Bull.


That leaves Dhawan, whose upcoming films — including the Coolie No. 1 remake — have not been mentioned in any straight-to-streaming conversations. Per Bollywood Hungama, Dhawan is said to merely be hosting the event, and it's “unlikely” that Coolie No. 1 will release on Disney+ Hotstar owing to Varun's father and Coolie No. 1 director David Dhawan's preference for the theatrical model.
