Digital Desk: Shah Rukh Khan's much-anticipated movie Pathaan is set to hit theatres next week. The action-thriller is the actor's first lead role since 2018. Needless to say, there is a lot of excitement surrounding it. And now it has been revealed as to when Pathaan will release on the streaming platform post its theatrical run.
Pathaan has been produced by Yash Raj Films. On Monday, January 16, the Delhi High Court ordered the production house to provide Hindi subtitles, closed captioning, and audio description for the film and re-submit it to the CBFC for re-certification. This was done so that people with hearing and vision impairments could watch the film on OTT platforms. During the hearing, the filmmakers stated that the film will be available on Prime Video on April 25, three months after its theatrical release.
A tweet by Bar and Bench covering the verdict read, "The court, therefore, directed the producers to submit the close captioning, subtitles and audio description to CBFC for the movie's OTT release by February 20. The CBFC will take a decision on the same by March 10. The movie is set to release on @PrimeVideo on April 25."
So far, no official information on the film's OTT release has been announced. However, given the date is far away, it is expected that the production company and platform will make a formal announcement closer to the date, most likely in April.
Pathaan, directed by Siddharth Anand, is part of the YRF Spy Universe, which also includes the Tiger Series and War. Deepika Padukone plays the female lead, while John Abraham plays the antagonist. Ashutosh Rana and Dimple Kapadia also play important roles. The film’s trailer was launched last Tuesday amid much fanfare and broke several viewing records.
