Kerala’s own OTT Platform: C-Space

The Kerala government is expected to unveil C-Space, the first state-owned OTT platform in India, next month, according to a top state government official. This news will certainly will be a welcoming one for the aspiring filmmakers in Malayalam Cinema. Kerala’s own OTT Platform, C-Space, will make its debut soon.

Built under the banner of the Kerala State Film Development Corporation (KSFDC) using state government funds, the platform is intended to support award-winning films, short films, and documentaries, while also opening up opportunities for low-budget independent cinema to reach a wider audience.

“Currently, at our film festivals, the local Malayalam flicks are viewed only by the delegates. Even if they are released in theaters, only people in Kerala can watch them. For example, the films presented at the International Film Festival of Kerala (IFFK) or those winning state awards should get a wider audience. We need to bring cinema to people, that’s our responsibility,” said Shaji N Karun, national-award-winning director and chairman of KSFDC.
