The above-mentioned reactions have proved that YRF Entertainment missed a big opportunity.
Despite not following the common process of adding abuses and violence to an OTT project, it seems like the director failed to bring something that would engage the audience.
The film is produced by Maneesh Sharma, who has a good track record with YRF over the years. Even if his last film Tiger 3 received mixed reviews, viewers expected Maneesh to bounce back with Vijay 69.
Moreover, the basic storyline is all about an underdog facing all the odds to become a winner. It is a concept that we have seen various times in the past and YRF now needs to work on bringing better and new stories.
