Amol Parashar: OTTs helped content to move beyond sex, romance and action

When actor Amol Parashar began his journey on OTT platforms in 2016, it was an uncharted territory. But the Feels Like Ishq (2021) actor was unafraid to take the risk because he wanted to explore the newer mediums and tell newer stories.“It was experimental in the sense that not many people were doing the long form stories. It was being explored at a very small scale and may be just two or three people were doing it at that time. I think what we realised then was that the audience don’t care where they are watching as long as they like what they are watching,” he shares.Talking about Tripling, a series that revolves around siblings,the 35-year-old adds that no Bollywood producer would ever back such a story.He says, “There was no sex, no romance , no action, people were like kya bhai behen ki story bana rahe ho. But OTTs helped content to move beyond sex, romance and action.”Parashar, who has starred in OTT projects such as Sardar Udham, Cash and the recently released, 36 Farmhouse, says he is glad that people are trying newer things irrespective of whether it succeed or fails.Happy to see the tide turning, he explains, “Pehle aisa hota tha that they would only replicate a formula. Now people are seeking different things to watch. The audience is very vocal and very strong about their opinion. Earlie,r I used to be unsure about trying newer subject but now I don’t hesitate because I know that there are people out there looking for novelty.
