After rewriting box-office history, Dhurandhar is now ready to make its digital debut. The Ranveer Singh–led spy thriller, which dominated theatres for weeks, will begin streaming on Netflix on Friday, January 30, as confirmed on the film’s official Netflix India page.
For fans who missed it on the big screen — or want to relive its scale and swagger — the wait is finally over.
From theatres to Netflix
Released in cinemas on December 5, Dhurandhar didn’t just open big — it exploded. The film went on to cross the ₹1000 crore gross mark in India and surged past ₹1300 crore worldwide, making it one of the biggest Indian blockbusters of all time.
Netflix has now updated the film’s listing with a “Coming on Friday” notification, allowing subscribers to set reminders ahead of its streaming premiere.
What Dhurandhar is about
Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar is a gritty, high-stakes spy thriller set against a tense geopolitical backdrop. The story follows an Indian intelligence operative sent deep undercover into Pakistan’s Lyari region to infiltrate a powerful Baloch gang.
Ranveer Singh plays the lead role of Hamza Ali Mazari, also known as Jaskirat Singh Rangi — a spy living multiple identities in hostile territory. His adversary, gang leader Rehman Dakait, is portrayed by Akshaye Khanna, delivering one of his most talked-about performances in recent years.
The ensemble cast also includes Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi.
A historic box-office run
Dhurandhar didn’t just succeed — it entered an elite club. It became the first Bollywood film to cross ₹1000 crore domestically, joining only a handful of Indian mega-hits to reach that level.
The exclusive list includes:
- Pushpa 2: The Rule
- Baahubali 2: The Conclusion
- KGF Chapter 2
For a Hindi-language film to break into that territory marked a major industry moment — and cemented Dhurandhar as a cultural phenomenon.
Sequel already locked
The franchise isn’t slowing down anytime soon. Dhurandhar 2 is officially slated for release on March 19, 2026, timed for Eid. The sequel will release across Hindi and all major South Indian languages.
Interestingly, it will clash at the box office with Toxic: A Fairytale For Grown-Ups, starring Yash and directed by Geetu Mohandas — setting up one of 2026’s biggest cinematic face-offs.
Final words
With its Netflix release locked for January 30, Dhurandhar is poised for a massive second wave — this time on streaming. Whether you missed it in theatres or want to revisit one of the biggest Indian blockbusters ever made, this spy saga is ready to dominate screens all over again.
