The box office phenomenon Dhurandhar: The Revenge is preparing for its digital debut following a historic theatrical run that has reshaped the landscape of Indian cinema.
As of Monday, April 20, 2026, reports confirm that the Ranveer Singh starrer has secured a massive ₹150 crore OTT deal, one of the highest ever for a Hindi film. In a strategic shift from the first installment’s partnership with Netflix, the global rights for the sequel have been acquired by JioHotstar. Fans can expect the film to begin streaming in late May or early June 2026, as the makers look to capitalize on its enduring popularity in theaters.
The decision to schedule the OTT premiere for late May stems from the film’s unprecedented longevity at the box office. Having released on March 19, the spy thriller has already made history as the first Hindi film to cross the ₹1000 crore net mark in India. With worldwide collections soaring past ₹1700 crore, the production team is reportedly extending the theatrical window to maximize earnings before transitioning to the small screen. This digital deal further solidifies the Dhurandhar duology as a commercial juggernaut, with the two films combined earning a staggering ₹3000 crore globally.
Directed by Aditya Dhar, the sequel dives deeper into the complex psyche of Jaskirat Singh Rangi, who evolves into the legendary Hamza Ali Mazari. The plot explores his recruitment by R. Madhavan’s character, Ajay Sanyal, and his subsequent rise within the Karachi underworld as “Sher-e-Baloch.” With a high-stakes psychological war against terror masterminds and a supporting cast featuring Sara Arjun, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal, the film has set a new benchmark for the geopolitical action genre in India.
As the “Dhurandhar wave” continues, the upcoming digital release on JioHotstar is expected to trigger a massive surge in subscriptions. Even with new contenders like Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla entering the arena, the demand for Ranveer Singh’s magnum opus remains at an all-time high. For those who missed the cinematic spectacle or are eager for a rewatch, the countdown to the late May premiere has officially begun.
