Dulquer Salmaan’s much-talked-about period drama Kaantha finally hit theatres on 14 November, and the buzz hasn’t slowed down since. Directed by Selvamani Selvaraj, the film dives into the life of a superstar battling the weight of fame, ego, and power. Early viewers are praising its grand visuals and meditative storytelling style—exactly the kind of slow-burn drama that stays with you.
And now, fans waiting to catch it at home finally have an answer on the OTT front.
Kaantha OTT Release: Streaming Soon on Netflix
Kaantha will stream on Netflix after its theatrical run. The film has released in Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam, so it’s expected to drop on OTT in all three languages as well.
Netflix confirmed the news with a post saying,
“Two artists. One feud. A lesson they’ll never forget. Kaantha is coming to Netflix.”
A release date hasn’t been announced yet, but going by recent South Indian releases, the digital premiere is likely to arrive a few weeks after its box office run.
