Musicals On OTT

Qala

Anvita Dutt Guptan's Qala is the story of a singer who is named Qala and her complicated relationship with her mother. The film is set in the early 1900s. It is a musical with a haunting story to tell as it seems from the ">trailer. Tripti Dimri, a young and talented actor, will co-star opposite Babil Khan. It will be available on Netflix from December 1, 2022.

Matilda: The Musical

The story of Matilda: The Musical is around 5-year-old Matilda Wormwood, a bright child with the power of telekinesis who loves to read, overcomes challenges from her family and school, and aids her teacher in reclaiming her life.

Spirited

Each year on Christmas Eve, Will Ferrell's character, the Ghost of Christmas Present, chooses a dark soul to be converted by three spirits. He chose the incorrect Scrooge for this season, though. Ryan Reynolds's Clint Briggs turns the tables on his ghostly host, forcing Present to reevaluate his own history, present, and destiny. In this funny musical take on the well-known Dickens story, A Christmas Carol is recounted for the first time from the viewpoint of the ghosts.

Bandish Bandits

A ten-episode coming-of-age series with a musical theme, Bandish Bandits is directed by Anand Tiwari and Amritpal Singh Bindra. It begins by contrasting the worlds of Indian classical music with current music before introducing other themes including family conflicts, generational divides, oppression of women, talent vs. beauty, choosing between fame, money and loyalty, and friction between couples.

Been So Long

Been So Long, which is an adaptation of the musical of the same name, takes a dreamy look at an accidental meeting between two people who are terribly in need of a respite from reality. This musical romance, featuring Michaela Coel and Arinzé Kene, will capture your attention from the very first note until the very last lyric thanks to their explosive on-screen chemistry.
