Fans Flag Censorship on OTT Version

Soon after streaming began, viewers took to social media to complain that the OTT version of Dhurandhar appeared censored despite holding an ‘A’ certificate. Fans alleged that several dialogues were muted, abusive language was toned down and key scenes were edited. One viewer wrote, “You certify the film as A but you have muted/censored words! Everyone here is over 18. There’s no meaning in watching a film with so many cuts.” Another added, “#Dhurandhar on Netflix with muted dialogues + censored abuses. If OTT isn’t giving us the uncut version, who is?”

Comparisons With Other A-Rated Films

Several users compared Dhurandhar’s OTT version with other adult-rated films. “Censoring an A-rated film itself is a joke, whereas Animal and Kabir Singh had no cuts,” one post read. Others echoed similar concerns, questioning why an adult film was edited on an over-18 platform.

Alleged Runtime Reduction Adds to Criticism

Apart from muted dialogues, viewers also pointed out that the film’s runtime on OTT was shorter than its theatrical version. Dhurandhar reportedly ran for around 3 hours and 34 minutes in cinemas, while the digital version clocks in at approximately 3 hours and 25 minutes. “Cut version - around 10 minutes deleted,” a user claimed, with many demanding the release of an uncut version.

‘Dhurandhar 2’ Release Date

The digital release comes nearly eight weeks after Dhurandhar hit theatres on December 5, 2025. Meanwhile, the makers are preparing for Dhurandhar Part 2, which is scheduled for a theatrical release on March 19.
