Actor Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub stated that the rise of OTT streaming has led to the creation of a new star system driven by the audience's habit of hero worship.
Ayyub noted that streaming storytelling is currently dominated by formulas and tropes such as thrillers and village narratives with police or thief protagonists.
He stars in the web series 'Hunkkaar', which focuses on a schoolgirl's sexual harassment allegation against a self-proclaimed godman and premieres on JioHotstar.
