Dhurandhar premieres on JioHotstar on May 22 with an exclusive RAW and Undekha version
Blockbuster leaves cinemas behind as streaming debut promises a deeper, unseen experience
MUMBAI – Ready or not, here comes Dhurandhar again, only this time, your sofa gets the front-row seat. After a record-smashing run at the box office, Dhurandhar is heading to JioHotstar on May 22, bringing with it a fresh twist: a special RAW and Undekha version designed exclusively for streaming audiences.
The move marks the next big chapter for one of India’s most talked-about films of the year. Having already drawn crowds to theatres nationwide, the action drama is now set to expand its reach, moving from multiplexes into millions of homes across cities, towns and smaller communities.
But this is not just a standard digital release.
According to the platform, the streaming version offers a more immersive experience, featuring unseen moments and an unfiltered cut intended to pull viewers deeper into the film’s world. For fans who missed it in cinemas, it is a first chance to watch the phenomenon unfold. For those returning, it promises enough new material to justify a second round.
That “RAW and Undekha” positioning is a clever one. In a crowded streaming market, exclusivity matters, and unseen content gives audiences a reason to click play rather than simply scroll on.
Presented by Jio Studios and produced by B62 Studios, Dhurandhar is written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar, with additional production credits going to Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar. The film tells the untold story of “the origins of the unknown men”, a premise that has helped build much of its intrigue.
The streaming debut also opens new doors commercially. For advertisers, the film offers what JioHotstar describes as a rare opportunity to tap into mass national viewership around a title that has already proven its cultural pull.
From silver screens to smaller screens, Dhurandhar is proving its name fits. Its theatrical chapter may be over, but its next act is only just beginning.
