In a surprising move, Netflix has swiftly followed up the release of Nani’s “Hi Nanna” on January 4th, 2024, with the announcement of Nithiin’s “Extra Ordinary Man” hitting the streaming platform on January 12th, 2024. This strategic move not only showcases Netflix’s commitment to a diverse and robust content library but also provides a redemption opportunity for “Extra Ordinary Man,” which faced challenges during its theatrical release.
During its cinema debut, “Extra Ordinary Man” faced tough competition, clashing with Nani’s “Hi Nanna.” Despite being overshadowed by the success of “Hi Nanna” and “Animal,” the film received unwarranted backlash from audiences, largely attributed to inadequate promotional efforts. However, the film, often overlooked in theaters, now has the chance to shine on the OTT stage, offering viewers a second chance to appreciate its cinematic merits.
“Extra Ordinary Man” promises an entertaining experience, focusing on Nithiin’s character with variations reminiscent of previous successes like “Kick” and the commendable aspects of “Oosaravelli.” For those who appreciate a blend of action and entertainment, the film is positioned as a worthwhile watch, making it an ideal choice for film enthusiasts seeking an engaging time-pass on Netflix.
