Fans expressed frustration after the Malayalam hit film Premalu was removed from JioHotstar ahead of the October 2 theatrical release of its Hindi remake, Prem Keetanu.
The trailer for Prem Keetanu, directed by Apoorv Singh Karki and starring Veer Pahariya and Aafiya Sayed, faced criticism for its tone and departure from the original film's narrative.
While the Malayalam, Tamil, and Hindi versions were pulled from the platform, the Telugu dubbed version of the 2024 original remains available to stream on Aha.
