After a successful theatrical run grossing Rs 1,000 crore, the film ‘Dhurandhar’ was released on OTT platforms. However, viewers noticed several muted dialogues and approximately 10 minutes of footage removed from the digital version. This editing has sparked frustration among fans who expected the full uncut film.
Many fans compared the OTT release of ‘Dhurandhar’ with other popular films like ‘Animal’ and ‘Kabir Singh,’ which reportedly streamed without any cuts or censorship. The alterations in ‘Dhurandhar’ have led to debates about consistency in content presentation across platforms.
**Why this matters**
The issue highlights ongoing concerns about censorship and content modification in digital releases, even for films that have already been cleared for theatrical viewing. It raises questions about the standards applied by streaming services and the impact on viewer experience. This situation also reflects broader discussions on creative integrity and audience expectations in the evolving entertainment landscape.
