‘Jaat’ Heads to Netflix After Box Office Success
Sunny Deol’s film Jaat was released earlier this year in cinemas and became a massive commercial success. Produced on a budget of ₹100 crore, the film managed to gross around ₹110 crore globally, making it a modest hit considering current market trends and competition from both Bollywood and South Indian cinema.
Now, as expected in the digital era, the movie is transitioning to an OTT platform, bringing its intense storyline and gripping action sequences to home screens.
Sunny Deol’s Dramatic OTT Announcement
In a video shared on his official Instagram account, Sunny Deol is seen holding a calendar and expressing his frustration in a light-hearted tone about the constant questioning from fans about Jaat‘s OTT release. Mimicking his iconic courtroom monologue from Damini, he says:
“Taarikh pe taarikh, taarikh pe taarikh, taarikh pe taarikh… Oye Netflix!”
He then reveals with a smile that Jaat will start streaming on Netflix from June 5, 2025. The clip ends with snippets from the film, reminding viewers of the intense performances and action-packed visuals that made the movie popular.

The film is known for its stylized action, gripping narrative, and hard-hitting social commentary.

Randeep Hooda and Vineet Kumar Singh play the antagonists in the film, adding depth and intensity with their strong screen presence and nuanced acting. Their characters are well-written, portraying the dark side of systemic power.
Why the OTT Release Matters
With the OTT space gaining prominence, especially post-pandemic, fans who missed the theatrical run or want to rewatch the film can now enjoy it at their convenience. Releasing on Netflix, a platform with a vast global audience, gives Jaat an opportunity to reach non-resident Indian audiences and international viewers curious about Indian cinema.
Furthermore, the OTT release is perfectly timed, as it follows a successful theatrical run and is being released during a peak content consumption period.
Sunny Deol’s Resurgence
Sunny Deol had made a remarkable comeback with Gadar 2, and Jaat only further solidified his position as a viable lead in mainstream cinema, even after four decades in the industry. His choice of socially relevant yet entertaining scripts has resonated well with audiences, particularly in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities.
His approach to the announcement—humorous, dramatic, and directly involving fans—also highlights how veteran stars are adapting to new-age marketing techniques on social media.
Marketing and Social Media Buzz
The announcement video quickly went viral, with fans flooding the comments section expressing their excitement. Memes referencing Sunny’s Damini courtroom scene merged with the Jaat announcement began circulating widely, giving the film a fresh round of buzz ahead of its OTT debut.
Streaming Expectations: Will ‘Jaat’ Dominate Netflix?
Given the buzz, the action-packed content, and Sunny Deol’s loyal fanbase, Jaat is expected to perform well on Netflix. If the movie garners high viewership, it could become one of the top Hindi releases on the platform this month, competing with other mainstream releases in June 2025.
Moreover, the timing of the release just ahead of the weekend could boost viewership further as audiences look for compelling weekend content.
What’s Next for Sunny Deol?
While Jaat continues to make waves, reports suggest that Sunny Deol is already working on his next film—rumored to be a political thriller or a sequel to one of his iconic earlier films. The actor has indicated in interviews that he is open to exploring digital-first releases as well, marking a new chapter in his career.
Jaat‘s OTT release marks yet another successful crossover from the big screen to digital platforms. With its June 5 debut on Netflix, Sunny Deol fans can gear up for an intense, emotionally charged, and action-filled experience from the comfort of their homes.
