Ranveer Singh’s record-breaking blockbuster Dhurandhar has officially begun its digital journey. After an extraordinary theatrical run that shattered box office records across India, the film is now streaming on Netflix, marking a major moment for Indian cinema on the global OTT stage.
Released in theatres on December 5, Dhurandhar continued to dominate cinemas well into January, ultimately crossing a historic ₹1,000 crore in India net collections. The film has now emerged as the highest-earning single-language Hindi film ever released in India, setting a new benchmark for Bollywood blockbusters.
A Power-Packed Star Cast and Grand Vision
Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar boasts an impressive ensemble cast featuring Ranveer Singh in the lead, alongside Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi. The film’s scale, performances, and intense storytelling played a crucial role in its box office success.
Aditya Dhar described the OTT release as a “new chapter” for the film, emphasizing how audiences deeply connected with its layered narrative and larger-than-life characters during its theatrical run.
“With its release on Netflix, the film begins a new chapter—reaching farther, inviting new viewers to discover its layers and revisit its moments in their own time,” Dhar said.
Netflix Release in Multiple Languages
One of the biggest highlights of Dhurandhar’s OTT release is its availability in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, allowing the film to reach a wider pan-India and global audience. Streaming in over 190 countries, Netflix has positioned the film as a major international Indian release.
Monika Shergill, VP of Content at Netflix India, called Dhurandhar a true pop-culture phenomenon that has dominated conversations both online and offline.
“Ambitious and bold, Dhurandhar is crafted with exceptional vision. Its Netflix journey strengthens our long-standing creative partnership,” she stated.
A Film Designed for the Streaming Era
Interestingly, producers revealed that the film was structured with an almost OTT-style chapter format, making it highly suitable for binge-watching. This narrative choice helped the movie resonate strongly with younger audiences and global viewers.
Producer Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios noted that Dhurandhar reflects India’s growing command over cinematic storytelling that transcends language and geography.
Meanwhile, Lokesh Dhar of B62 Studios highlighted the film’s journey from script to screen as one driven by sheer ambition and scale.
Viral Moments and Cultural Impact
Beyond box office numbers, Dhurandhar became a social media sensation. Ranveer Singh’s iconic hair flip, Akshaye Khanna’s effortless dance moves, and the film’s chart-topping songs created multiple viral moments, further cementing its place in pop culture.
With its Netflix release, Dhurandhar is expected to reignite online conversations and introduce the film to millions of new viewers worldwide
