Dhurandhar Netflix Cut Sparks Outrage
30 Jan
Summary
- Netflix released Dhurandhar on January 30, 2026.
- Netflix version is 3 hours and 25 minutes long.
- Social media users are angry about the film's runtime.
Dhurandhar premiered on Netflix on January 30, 2026, following its theatrical release on December 5, 2025. The film's runtime on Netflix is 3 hours and 25 minutes, which is shorter than its cinema version.
This shorter runtime has led to significant backlash on social media platforms, with many users expressing anger and claiming the Netflix version is "censored." Some viewers also reported issues with color grading, sound, and video quality on the streaming platform.
The reported reduction in runtime is due to the need to mute specific dialogue references to the Baloch community. The revised censor certificate indicates a runtime of 3 hours and 28 minutes, with the updated version beginning theatrical runs on January 1.
Insiders suggest that Netflix uploads films exactly as provided by producers, meaning the version on the platform is the final DCP theatrical version. Despite concerns, the depiction of violence remains consistent with the original theatrical release. A sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, is slated for release on March 19, 2026.
