The digital wave has been taking India by storm for the last couple of years and Telugu film industry has not fallen back in contributing to this digital revolution. Some young filmmakers and actors have associated themselves with web series. Gangstars is a crucial project as it marks Amazon Prime's debut in Tollywood and the stakes are much higher for it.

However, Amazon Prime Video already has several Telugu movies including Rangasthalam in its catalogues and they have got a good response. Now, it will start streaming GangStars from June 1. It should be seen how the audience will receive it, and a success is expected to encourage more filmmakers and actors to tread the same path.
