After its March 19 premiere, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, starring Ranveer Singh, is still doing well in theaters, delaying its anticipated OTT launch. JioHotstar has the digital rights to the movie, and it will probably start streaming in the final week of May or early June of 2026. Its continued box office success and the platform’s plan to release it following the conclusion of the Indian Premier League 2026 in order to increase viewership are the primary causes of the delay.
Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’s over-the-top (OTT) release has become a talking topic among spectators who missed theaters and are eagerly anticipating its arrival online. The Ranveer Singh-led spy thriller is still making a lot of money at the box office, which has somewhat altered the schedule for its digital release.
OTT plans are delayed by a strong theatrical run.
Even weeks after its March 19, 2026, theatrical release, Dhurandhar 2 has been drawing crowds. According to sources, the movie has made over ₹1,600 crore worldwide. It was able to add strong daily revenues even in its third week, demonstrating the kind of hold it has at the box office.
The movie is not hurrying to OTT because of this consistent performance. Bollywood movies typically have an eight-week theatrical run before going on streaming services. This is done to make sure that movie collections are unaffected.
When and where to watch Dhurandhar 2 online
“Dhurandhar: The Revenge is scheduled to premiere on JioHotstar after the conclusion of IPL 2026,” a source informed Filmibeat Chief Copy Editor Abhishek Ranjit. Depending on JioHotstar’s programming schedule, the movie will be available for streaming online during the final week of May or the first week of June 2026.
The delay is mostly tactical. The platform is refraining from publishing a high-profile movie during the Indian Premier League 2026, which is currently attracting enormous viewership.
The movie has a clearer window and receives more attention from spectators when it is streamed after the IPL concludes. Although it’s a straightforward action, it makes sense from a commercial perspective.
There is a financial component as well. JioHotstar acquired the movie’s digital rights for an estimated 120–150 crore.
“While Netflix paid an outrageous amount for the digital rights of the first installment, the makers believed that the second part deserved a premium price as it had the potential to break office records,” the insider added in reference to the agreement. JioHotstar was thrilled to pay an astounding sum (between Rs 120 and Rs 150 crore) to secure the exclusive streaming rights for Dhurandhar 2.
Story, cast, and ongoing excitement
The film, which was directed by Aditya Dhar, features Ranveer Singh once again as Jaskirat Singh Rangi, an undercover spy who works in Pakistan under a false identity. With a larger scope than the first installment, the sequel delves further into espionage, treachery, and high-stakes operations.
Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, and others play important roles in the movie.
