Dhurandhar OTT Surprise: Netflix To Stream Undekha Version Today, JioHotstar Also Joins Simultaneous Release
The Dhurandhar franchise has triggered a major OTT wave across the entertainment industry after fresh updates from Netflix and industry reports confirmed new streaming developments for both installments of the Ranveer Singh-led spy saga.
While global audiences are already streaming Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge in select markets, Indian viewers were initially focused on its upcoming OTT release on JioHotstar. However, the latest announcement clarified that the immediate focus is not the sequel but a special edition of the first film.
Netflix has confirmed that the raw, uncut “undekha” version of Dhurandhar: The Revenge will begin streaming in India on May 22, 2026. The updated cut is expected to include extended scenes, unfiltered dialogue, and high-intensity violent sequences that were earlier toned down for theatrical release. The version will be available in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil, expanding accessibility across regional audiences.
Adding to the surprise, multiple reports now confirm that the same uncensored version will also stream on JioHotstar from the same date, marking a rare simultaneous dual-platform release in India. This unusual collaboration has intensified discussions around digital rights sharing and OTT distribution strategies.
The announcement initially sparked confusion online, with many fans assuming it was related to Dhurandhar 2 . Social media platforms quickly filled with speculation before clarification confirmed that the update strictly concerns the first installment.
Adding a fresh layer of buzz, recent reports also highlight that Dhurandhar 2 has faced legal scrutiny, with the Delhi High Court directing authorities to review allegations regarding sensitive content portrayal, further amplifying attention around the franchise.
Meanwhile, the OTT release schedule for Dhurandhar 2 remains unchanged. The film is locked for its India digital premiere on June 4, 2026, with streaming beginning shortly after on June 5. The sequel will arrive in its standard theatrical cut , unlike the raw version of the first film.
Internationally, the raw cut of Dhurandhar 2 has already been praised by fans for its extended brutality and darker tone, while also sparking debate over censorship differences between global and Indian versions.
