On this collaboration, Sushil Chaudhary, CEO, PictureTime says:
“One of the main USP of Picturetime is to be a platform for filmmakers who are not able to access theatrical release system in an effective manner. When we met Jhalki team, the beautiful film, made with a lot of passion. A beautiful story of a child and I feel this movie should go and reach every school of this country. When Mr.Brahmanand proposed that Jhalki could be the next MDMT release, we accepted and here we are going to go ahead with the collaboration and take this movie to all schools across India.”

“India has a lot of entertainment dark spots especially in the rural areas and tier 3 cities but the same time entertainment is loved and people are very eager to watch new released films but looking at the economic viability of the project, not too many theatres are coming up. So when I was designing the project, idea was to cater to rural parts of India and today we have done a lot of travelling across tier 3 cities of many states. We’ve been to 14 states and it’s a joy to see people reacting to PictureTime in rural parts of India.”
