Theatre, cinema hall or big screen, whatever be the term; this terminology has always been the center stage and focal point of entertainment. Besides being an entertainment platform, reflects a great deal of our culture and social life. Theatre enhances the experience of watching on a large screen by providing the best possible audio and visuals. Any movie's visual clarity could be felt solely with the welldesigned ambience in theatres. With the “Anyone, Anywhere” phenomenon facilitated by advanced gadget features stimulates the demand for a new visual experience, which ultimately leads to OTT platforms. The Over-the-top (OTT) platforms have a significant influence on the innovative drive in the entertainment sectors. Keeping this in view, this paper attempts to study the public's interest in watching movies at theatres and OTT platforms.
