Mumbai/IBNS: Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana paired up for the first time for director Shoojit Sircar's 'Gulabo Sitabo' and it also premiered on Friday on Amazon Prime Video instead of a movie theatre due to COVID-19 outbreak.

It is the first major B-town movie that premiered on a streaming platform.

The movie halls are currently shut down across the country due to the pandemic.

The movie has earned positive reviews so far.
