Tremendous hype for The Priest world television premiere in Asianet
Mammootty’s hit film ‘The Priest’ is all set to have its world television premiere. Asianet has bagged the satellite rights and the film will be telecast today (June 4) at 7 PM. For the last few days, the broadcasters have been doing great publicity, which includes frequent ads with actors like Manju Warrier appearing in it. They have also given a newspaper advertisement on the front page of a leading daily today. It is evident that the channel is trying to reach out to maximum people and ensure that the film gets a high TRP. Moreover, it is a Friday night and most people are already confined to their homes due to the lockdown. So the film is expected to break into the top 5 in the TRP ratings of Malayalam films.
