Dhurandhar 2, titled Dhurandhar: The Revenge, is creating a buzz as fans await its OTT release following a successful theatrical run that began on March 19. Viewers who missed the cinema screenings are eager to know when the spy thriller will be available online in India.
A trusted industry source has revealed that the film is expected to premiere on JioHotstar after IPL 2026 concludes, likely in the last week of May or the first week of June 2026.
JioHotstar emerged as the official digital platform for Dhurandhar 2 after an aggressive bidding process. The same insider told Filmibeat Chief Copy Editor Abhishek Ranjit that while Netflix had paid a hefty amount for the first film’s digital rights, the makers believed the sequel deserved a premium price due to its blockbuster potential. “JioHotstar was happy to pay a mind-boggling ₹120–150 crore to secure exclusive streaming rights for Dhurandhar 2,” the source added.
The insider also explained that the post-IPL release window aligns perfectly with JioHotstar’s programming strategy. On the film’s OTT release timing, they said, “Dhurandhar: The Revenge will premiere on JioHotstar after IPL 2026, either in the final week of May or the opening week of June, depending on the platform’s schedule.”
Directed by Aditya Dhar, the spy thriller stars Ranveer Singh in the lead, supported by an ensemble cast including Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi. Their characters drive the espionage plot, keeping audiences engaged in theatres while building anticipation for the film’s digital release.
Since hitting cinemas on March 19, Dhurandhar 2 has quickly become one of the most-discussed spy thrillers of 2026. Strong word of mouth and franchise loyalty drew crowds eager to witness the high-octane action on the big screen before the OTT premiere.
The sequel builds on the success of the first Dhurandhar film, released in December last year, which also starred Ranveer Singh, was directed by Aditya Dhar, and reportedly earned over ₹1,000 crore worldwide—setting a high benchmark for the follow-up. With high trade expectations, Dhurandhar 2 has already broken several box office records and is on track to become another blockbuster for Ranveer Singh, further heightening interest ahead of its confirmed JioHotstar streaming window.
