Mumbai: The Indian digital media and music company Divo has partnered with Indo Overseas Films (IOF) for the release of the 2018 Chinese blockbuster “Mojin: The Treasure Valley” across multiple OTT platforms in India. The film that averted its theatrical release due to the pandemic, is now available to viewers in four languages - English, Hindi. Tamil and Telugu - for a pay-per-view model across Book My Show, Gudsho, Google Play, Shemaroo, Hungama Play, Filme, Oct Square, and Apple TV.

The action-fantasy thriller revolves around a legendary tomb explorer named Hu Bayi who is on a hunt to find the cure to an ancient curse in the Tomb of Emperor Xian. It features Hang Cai, Xuan Gu, and Heng Yu in the lead roles. Originally titled "Mojin: The Worm Valley", it is the second installment in the 'Mojin' series following the 2015 release, "Mojin: The Lost Legend".

Speaking on the release, IOF's CEO Firoz Elias said, “With the evolution of film distribution in India and movies only releasing online, it was imperative for us to partner with a digital distributor, who could provide a smooth process. This movie never got an opportunity to release in India due to the pandemic and considering the current situation, we decided to go ahead with an OTT release. We are glad to team up with Divo for this release, who helped us reach out to a large audience base via correct channels.”

Speaking on the association, Divo founder and director Shahir Muneer said, “With audiences not able to go out and enjoy movies like earlier, it has become important for us to offer them new and fresh content across multiple touch-points. There is a very high demand for content in international languages and it’s our constant endeavor at Divo to provide maximum reach via regional languages.”
