Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge has continued its winning streak even after leaving theatres. The spy action film recently arrived on JioHotstar and quickly attracted a massive audience. There were doubts as the film arrived in India nearly 20 days after the International release but the massive audience base of JioHotstar helped the film massively.
According to figures shared by the platform, the film crossed 50 million viewers during its opening weekend. The achievement is particularly notable because the movie’s debut on streaming was not without controversy. JioHotstar chose to premiere the film through a live streaming event before making it available for regular viewing the following day. While many viewers questioned the unusual approach, the film’s viewership numbers suggest that curiosity and excitement around the title remained high.
Another interesting detail is that a majority of the watch time came from connected TV devices. This indicates that many viewers chose to watch the film on larger screens with family and friends rather than on mobile devices.
Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is the second film in the blockbuster franchise led by Ranveer Singh. Both films enjoyed remarkable success at the box office and built a loyal fan base through their action, scale, and dramatic storytelling.
The strong OTT debut shows that the franchise has managed to carry its popularity from theatres to streaming. With reports of a future surprise related to the Dhurandhar universe already creating buzz, fans will be watching closely to see what comes next for one of India’s biggest film franchises.
