Prithviraj Sukumaran’s Malayalam film ‘Jana Gana Mana’ has done excellent business in the theatres since its release on April 28. Critics and audiences have showered love and accolades on the film. People who’ve seen Jana Gana Mana in the theatres have praised the performances of Prithviraj Sukumaran and Suraj Venjaramoodu in the film. Audiences have also appreciated the film’s bold, hard-hitting approach to the sensitive issue of police encounters, fake or otherwise.
Unfortunately for non-Malayalam speakers, Jana Gana Mana has released in theatres only in the original Malayalam language. That means, in order to watch the film, the rest of India will have to wait for Jana Gana Mana to stream on OTT, where it will be available to stream in dubbed versions, and also with subtitles.
The question of the hour is then, what is the Jana Gana Mana OTT release date, and which OTT platform will it stream on. We at Binged have got you useful information on both – the Jana Gana Mana OTT release date, and Jana Gana Mana OTT platform.
Jana Gana Mana streaming rights have been bought by Netflix. So the film will release on Netflix after its run at the theatres. Regarding when ‘Jana Gana Mana’ will release on OTT, neither the makers nor Netflix has revealed any definite information on this. The norm in the entertainment industry nowadays is to have an exclusive 4-week theatrical window for films, before they arrive on OTT. Going by that thumb rule, ‘Jana Gana Mana’ released in theatres on April 28. The film should thus premiere on Netflix on 27th May, 29 days after its theatrical release.
There’s a small chance that ‘Jana Gana Mana’ might delay its release on OTT. This happens if a film is still doing excellent business in the theatres even at the end of four weeks. But by our calculation, ‘Jana Gana Mana’ should release on Netflix on May 27.
Interestingly, Jana Gana Mana has been envisioned as a 2-part film. This is Part 1 of the film. It is written by Sharis Mohammed and directed by Dijo Jose Antony.
Jana Gana Mana will release on Netflix tentatively on May 27. Have a look at the trailer of the film here –
