'Khosla Ka Ghosla' actor Parvinn Dabass on the future of OTT amid PM Modi's work-from-home appeal: 'Not a big believer at all in work from home and...'

Amid Prime Minister's Narendra Modi's work-from-home appeal, 'Khosla Ka Ghosla' actor Parvinn Dabass has spoken about the new concept and what this means for the future of streaming and the OTT platforms. The actor also spoke about the viewers consuming films and series sitting at homes.

Dabass was quoted saying, "Nobody is actually working from home. You know, you work maximum two hours and you're chilling, you're on the phone and it will change because most of the time you are going to be watching your favorite shows and pretending to work."

He added, "This is not something to say about OTT. I think it's something to say also about the work from home culture, which, like I said, I frankly don't believe in at all. I think there's too many distractions at home to actually be working. And if you're not going to be working, the remote is right there. You're going to go to your favorite OTT place."

"And you're going to start watching and you're going to say I'll watch and I'll get back to work. But I think there are very, very rare people who are actually going to work like full time. I'm not a big believer at all in work from home. And yes, if there is too much work from home, it will increase OTT consumption because everybody is going to be sitting at home watching shows. That's great for OTT, but not so great for work culture," the actor added.

Parvinn has been a part of Hindi cinema for more than 25 years. The actor is known for films like Monsoon Wedding, The Hero: Love Story Of A Spy, Khosla Ka Ghosla, and Ragini MMS 2.
