Here is the lowdown on the massive OTT premiere.
The Date: January 30, 2026 🗓️
Netflix has reportedly secured the rights for a record-breaking sum, and the film will premiere on Friday, January 30.
The Deal: Industry whispers suggest Netflix paid a staggering ₹275+ Crores for the digital rights, potentially beating the record set by Pushpa 2.
The Timing: The release is perfectly timed. It arrives just one week after the Dhurandhar 2 teaser hits theaters (attached to Border 2 on Jan 23), ensuring the "Hamza" hype stays at peak levels before the sequel arrives in March.
Why the Hype?
For the uninitiated, Dhurandhar isn't your typical spy movie.
The Plot: Ranveer plays Hamza (aka Jaskirat Singh), a criminal recruited by the IB Chief (R. Madhavan) to infiltrate the lawless Lyari gang wars in Karachi.
The Cast: The film features a "God-tier" ensemble including Akshaye Khanna (as the chilling villain Rehman Dakait), Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal.
The Runtime: Be warned—it’s a 3 hour 10 minute saga!
Catch Up Before 'Part 2'
This OTT release is crucial for fans. With 'Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge' hitting cinemas on March 19, 2026 (Eid), this is your only chance to refresh your memory on the complex web of lies, betrayals, and that cliffhanger ending.
SantaBanta Verdict: Ranveer Singh in his "darkest" role yet? Check. Akshaye Khanna stealing every scene? Check. The comfort of your couch? Check. Dhurandhar on Netflix is the easiest recommendation we’ll make all year.
