'Dhurandhar' OTT rights sold for record prize. Did it beat Allu Arjun-led 'Pushpa 2'?

Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar is making waves not just at the box office but also in the digital space, after reportedly sealing a record-breaking OTT deal with Netflix. The spy espionage thriller has sold its streaming rights to the platform for around ₹285 crore, marking the highest-ever OTT acquisition for a Hindi film on Netflix to date, Koimoi reported, citing industry sources.

The deal surpasses the previous record held by Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna’s Pushpa 2, whose Netflix rights were sold for nearly ₹275 crore.

Reacting to the development, movie reviewer Ravi Chaudhary wrote on X, "This clearly shows the unprecedented demand, hype, and global appeal of Dhurandhar even before its full theatrical run. Netflix betting big = confidence sky high (sic)."

Reports suggest that Dhurandhar could premiere on Netflix between January 16 and 30, 2026.
