Ranveer Singh’s massive box office hit, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, will not be arriving on streaming platforms as early as fans had hoped. In a strategic move, JioHotstar has reportedly postponed the film’s OTT premiere to late May or early June 2026, directly following the conclusion of the IPL 2026 season. The decision is aimed at maximising viewership by avoiding a clash with the peak cricket season, ensuring the blockbuster has a clear window to dominate the digital space. ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’ Makers Finalise Major Digital Deal; OTT Rights Sold for INR 150 Crore.

‘Dhurandhar 2’ Breaks Box Office Records

Since its theatrical release on March 19, 2026, the Aditya Dhar-directed sequel has rewritten record books. The film has crossed the INR 1,640 crore mark worldwide in just 20 days, becoming the first Hindi film in history to net over INR 1,000 crore in the domestic market. Despite the ongoing IPL season, the 229-minute (nearly 4-hour) espionage thriller has maintained a strong grip on theatres, which influenced the decision to extend its exclusive theatrical window.

JioHotstar has reportedly secured the digital streaming rights for Dhurandhar 2 in a major deal estimated between INR 120-150 crore, marking a significant platform shift from the 2025 prequel Dhurandhar, which is currently streaming on Netflix. The sequel, backed by Jio Studios, is expected to premiere on JioHotstar in the last week of May or the first week of June 2026. In addition to its digital release, the film’s satellite rights have been acquired by Star Gold, further highlighting the strong buzz and high expectations surrounding the upcoming sequel.
