Was is it a publicity stunt to leak the clip from The Great Father?
Yesterday, a clip from Megastar Mammootty’s highly anticipated movie The Great Father was found online. The clip was released online via a page that doesn’t have many followers. Many feared that the entire movie was leaked and the clip soon went viral across social medias.
But was the clip really leaked or was it released by the makers themselves for promotional purpose. Anyone who has watched the clip would have these doubts and there’s quite a few reasons for that.
Leaking a clip from the movie is majorly aimed at destroying the movie and it’s prospects. If that was the objective, then they could have leaked some major scenes from the movie. Why should they leak a portion that doesn’t reveal much about what’s in store in the movie?
The clip features Mammootty’s brilliant performance. If the idea was to showcase and popularise Mammootty’s perfomance, then it was certainly a fan’s work. But even then why release such a scene when they could have easily leaked some mass and stylish sequences from the movie.
Another major thing to note is that, it’s comparatively easier to leak a trailer or a teaser from the studio than leaking one from the final output. The leaked clip is a properly cut video that has gone through all the post production works including DI and sound mixing. There should be some reason why this particular scene was cut and leaked. If the aim was to degrade the movie, they could have leaked the climax portions. Doubts like these are lingering in our minds and there are several discussions in social medias about the same.
The clip features an absolutely brilliant performance from Mammootty, so fans are definitely in for a treat from this Friday. Hoping to see the movie mint some big bucks at the box office.
