Streaming services became the centre of entertainment in 2020, what with all outdoor venues closed for the majority of the year owing to the pandemic. Thanks to COVID-19, the likes of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ Hotstar picked up movies that were originally destined for theatres. From Sushant Singh Rajput to Amitabh Bachchan, Bollywood’s biggest stars were streamed directly into people’s homes. Even platforms that had previously displayed no interest in films got very active in that department. Some delivered shot-in-lockdown originals well
