Good luck. Sakhi was the last film to come from Nagesh, and now he has decided to take up the long-format storytelling with OTT platform SonyLIV. SonyLIV has the reputation of not promoting their content enough, as they believe that their stories will speak for themselves. They have made a lot of excellent TV shows that failed to reach the masses owing to their lack of promotional strategy.
