Recently acquiring Jhini Bini Chadariya, Movie Saints owner says the pay-per-view platform is not racing against Netflix or Prime Video; asserts idea is to empower indie filmmakers

Ajira Rungta remembers watching Ritesh Sharma’s directorial venture, Jhini Bini Chadariya, at the 2021 Dharamshala International Film Festival. Right then, she knew it was just the kind of film she was seeking for her platform, Movie Saints. “I told Ritesh that I want to make everybody watch this movie. He had been taking Jhini Bini Chadariya to various film festivals, and wanted to sell it to an OTT platform, but the deal couldn’t happen. That’s how our journey [with this film] started,” recalls Rungta.
