Mansi Bagla On Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan OTT Release
The producer expressed her excitement and said in a statement, “It’s great to see your work reach a large audience via OTT platforms. The film was well-received by audiences when it was released in theatres, and it is sure to reach a large audience now that it is available digitally.”
She continued, “Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan is our work of love, and it felt fantastic to bring talented actors Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor together. Shanaya’s debut at Mini Films was perfect and I’m delighted we were able to provide that platform for such a great talent.”
Mansi Bagla Sold Her Assets To Produce The Film
Earlier, speaking to Free Press Journal, Mansi Bagla shared that she even sold her assets to complete the film. She said, “Yes, I had to sell my second home and some jewellery to complete the shoot. I have no regrets at all. I began pushing myself one step at a time. I was under a lot of strain, which turned out to be a benefit. I made my first film during the peak of COVID-19, and at the same time, I got detached from materialistic things. I gave up my comfortable lifestyle and began pursuing my goals. I’m happy to say that I’m more confident today.”
