Mahavatar Narsimha OTT release: Where to watch Ashwin Kumar's highest-grossing animated Indian film

Mahavatar Narasimha OTT release: Ashwin Kumar directorial animated mythological epic 'Mahavatar Narasimha' will be releasing on OTT soon after its theatrical run. This spiritually charged tale emerged as the highest-grossing animated Indian film of all time while other contemporary movies struggled to attract audiences. According to trade analyst Rohit Jaiswal, it is probable that Mahavatar Narasimha will release on streaming giant JioHotstar in Hindi, India Times reported. With a probability of 50 per cent, the speculation is based on previous collaborations between the platform and the production house. Previously, Hindi-dubbed versions of big titles such as 'Salaar' and 'Raajakumara' were released on the same platform.

'Mahavatar Narasimha' OTT release: Find out when and where to watch the mythological epic

Picture Credit: X The animated mythological epic 'Mahavatar Narasimha', is performing incredibly. Directed by Ashwin Kumar and written by Jayapurna Das, while several recent Indian releases have struggled to attract audiences, this spiritually charged tale has slowly and steadily found its footing at the box office. The movie's theatrical run is still going strong, and there is buzz regarding the film's OTT release. Although Mahavatar Narasimha's creators have not formally disclosed a streaming release date or platform, industry rumours have already started to circulate. In an interview with India Times, trade analyst Rohit Jaiswal hinted to potential future changes, that there's a high chance, around 50 per cent, that the Hindi version of the film will stream on JioHotstar. This assumption is based on past associations between the platform and the film's production house, which previously released Hindi-dubbed versions of big titles like 'Salaar' and 'Raajakumara' on the same OTT service. Regional versions may land elsewhere However, the scenario may be different for regional language versions. Sources suggest that the Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada versions of 'Mahavatar Narasimha' could land on other platforms, depending on licensing deals and regional distribution partnerships. This approach would allow the film to tap into localised viewer bases while also aligning with existing OTT collaborations. Streaming date still unconfirmed With the film continuing to perform well in cinemas, a digital release is unlikely to happen immediately. It is predicted that the OTT release might be planned for late August or early September, depending on how long the theatrical traction holds. About the film The film, released originally in Kannada, marks the first entry in a planned seven-part animated cinematic universe inspired by the Dashavatara, the ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu. The movie was released on the big screens on July 25.
