Su From So Released on Jio Hotstar Disappoints Viewers, Call It ‘Overrated’ and ‘Boring’

The much-talked-about film Su From So started streaming on Jio Hotstar on September 9, but its OTT journey has been far from smooth. After a blockbuster 45-day theatrical run, earning ₹120 crore worldwide, the movie is now facing a barrage of negative reviews online, with many viewers calling it "overrated" and "boring."

Jio Hotstar Ads Annoy Viewers

A major complaint has been the frequent ads on Jio Hotstar. Non-premium subscribers are forced to sit through 15+ ads, each lasting over a minute. Many felt this ruined the flow of the film and distracted them from the story.

One viewer posted,"Yes, it is entertaining only in a community watch. On OTT, it's definitely below average."

Audience Says Theatre Experience Can't Be Recreated at Home

Fans pointed out that films like Su From So are designed for the big screen. In theatres, laughter, cheers, and crowd reactions amplify the experience, while solo viewing at home makes it feel dull.

Another social media user wrote,"Thanking God for not wasting money and time. Such a boring movie on Jio Hotstar."

While some viewers dismissed the film as "overhyped trash," others praised its message and performances. One viral comment said,"Ravi anna's 2-minute fight was the only saving grace. The story felt more like a 10-minute short film than a feature movie."

Despite the criticism, Su From So continues to dominate theatres, proving the massive gap between theatre experience vs OTT viewing.
