Malayalam superstar Mammootty’s first release of the year, Dominic and the Ladies Purse is finally coming to OTT next week after nearly 11 months. The film directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon was a box office disaster, even though it received mixed reviews and was not universally panned. The film had sparked discussions, with netizens wondering why it had flopped, even though it was a decent one-time watch detective thriller.
