Conflicting reports raise questions over the film’s massive OTT agreement
December 18, 2025- Ranveer Singh’s upcoming big-budget film Dhurandhar is making headlines once again—but this time, not for its trailer or performances. Instead, conflicting reports surrounding its Netflix OTT deal have sparked confusion across the industry, with multiple figures and timelines being circulated and no official confirmation yet in sight.
Massive Numbers, Mixed Signals
Several entertainment portals have reported that Dhurandhar has secured a high-value digital rights deal with Netflix, allegedly worth ₹130 crore. According to these reports, the agreement is said to include streaming rights for both parts of the film, positioning it as the most lucrative OTT deal of Ranveer Singh’s career so far.
However, newer and more speculative reports have complicated the narrative. A few outlets have claimed that the deal value could be significantly higher, with figures ranging up to ₹250–285 crore, which—if true—would make it one of the biggest OTT acquisitions in Indian cinema history. These wildly varying numbers have led to growing uncertainty around the actual terms of the deal.
No Official Confirmation Yet
Despite the buzz, neither Netflix nor the makers of Dhurandhar have officially confirmed the deal amount, platform exclusivity, or release timeline. Industry insiders cited in reports remain anonymous, and the absence of a formal announcement has only added to the speculation.
Adding to the confusion, some reports suggest a January 2026 OTT release, while others state that the streaming date will depend heavily on the film’s theatrical performance and post-theatrical window strategy.
Why the Deal Matters
If the ₹130 crore figure holds true, Dhurandhar would mark a career-high digital valuation for Ranveer Singh, reinforcing his bankability in both theatrical and streaming markets. For Netflix, the deal would signal continued confidence in big-star, high-scale Bollywood action films, even as OTT platforms become more cautious with content spending.
On the other hand, if the higher reported figures turn out to be accurate, the deal could reset OTT pricing benchmarks for future Bollywood releases—especially multi-part franchise films.
The Bigger Picture
For now, Dhurandhar stands at the center of an industry debate fueled by leaks, estimates, and insider chatter. Until an official statement is released, the Netflix deal remains highly likely but not fully confirmed, with its true value still up for debate.
What’s clear, however, is that Dhurandhar has already become one of the most closely watched OTT negotiations in recent times—long before audiences get to stream it.
