History[edit]
Beginning with the small footsteps of co-producing numerous Malayalam films, WWF started to get in to main stream production and distribution of Malayalam films. WWF has got well established as a distribution platform in India and Middle East, associating with Bollywood, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Tamil film industries. Distributing films across Middle East in various centres without middleman created a new wave which enhanced the reach of Indian film throughout GCC. The movement by WWF brought about a revolution in the entertainment industry of GCC.
Stepping into GCC[edit]
The First production venture of WWF Kohinoor (2015 film) turned to be a success and moved on to release the film in GCC region. Getting into GCC entertainment industry was an uphill battle in fact. WWF made agreement with the company which distributed films in GCC but when the film was all set to release it got clear that the agreement was merely in papers. Because of the monopoly the film couldn’t be taken directly to the theatres. During pre-production of Adam Joan, the founders of WWF tried to release a few films in the GCC but met restrictions. Over 3.5 million Keralite audiences in GCC were not catered promptly with Malayalam films or any other films. A situation of hoarding prevailed in the Film and Entertainment industry of GCC. WWF had to struggle on to bring this to the notice of Government officials in GCC. In a situation where no other companies in the world could enter in to independent film distribution in GCC, WWF broke the monopoly and started distributing films all over GCC. Aanandam was the first movie released by WWF at Vox Cinemas in Dubai and continued to expand the distribution network gaining footholds in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman,Qatar and Saudi Arabia. In India WWF has pitched into Bollywood by releasing Raees in south India with the record of largest number of theatre release of a Hindi film.
Vision[edit]
With strong foothold in GCC, WWF envision to take up distribution of Indian films worldwide. Background work has already been started for film distribution in United States, Canada and Australia and already completed the procedures for this in Europe and Australia. Expanding the horizon of film production, WWF is looking forward in entering into Bollywood industry.
Odiyan a milestone[edit]
Odiyan the most anticipated Malayalam Movie was a major milestone in the journey of WWF. Odiyan was released with more than 1000 shows per day in GCC, setting the record of biggest release of an Indian film. Apart from GCC countries Odiyan was released in countries listing United States, Canada, UK, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Australia, Kyrgyzstan, France, Finland, Georgia, Hungary, Ukraine, Latvia, Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Thailand, Africa, Japan and Switzerland.
