The action-drama Ghaati, starring Anushka Shetty and Vikram Prabhu, has been acquired by Amazon Prime Video for its digital release. The film, directed by Krish Jagarlamudi, underperformed at the box office and is nearing the end of its theatrical run. Normally, big-budget films debut on OTT platforms several weeks after their theatrical release. But, Ghaati could stray from this trend and premiere on Prime Video by September-end, reported OTTPlay.

Despite the film's high production value, it failed to resonate with audiences due to its predictable storyline and lackluster execution. This marks another setback for Jagarlamudi, who has been struggling with consecutive flops in his career.
