Mega-blockbusters War 2 and Mirai dominate streaming schedules as they make their highly anticipated arrival on OTT platforms this week. Fans prepare for back-to-back entertainment as the spy thriller hits Netflix and the fantasy epic lands on Jio Hotstar.
The wait is finally over for movie enthusiasts who missed the big-screen experience of two of the year’s most talked-about films. Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR’s high-octane spy thriller, War 2, and Teja Sajja’s mythological superhero adventure, Mirai, are officially heading to the small screen on consecutive days, promising an unforgettable streaming marathon for viewers worldwide.
War 2: Netflix Drops Spy Universe Action on October 9th
The sixth installment in the YRF Spy Universe, Ayan Mukerji’s War 2, is set to commence streaming on Netflix starting October 9th. The film, which features a thrilling face-off between Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan as the rogue agent Kabir Dhaliwal and South sensation Jr NTR in his grand Bollywood debut as the special unit officer Vikram Chelapathi, will command the attention of action lovers globally.
After a successful yet mixed run at the box office, the film’s digital premiere is expected to reignite fan debates and boost its viewership, giving it a new lease of life beyond the theatrical window. Netflix secured the digital rights for this major production, ensuring that the spy-vs-spy drama with its complex twists and stunning international action sequences reaches a massive global audience. Viewers can gear up to re-witness the epic scale, star-power, and adrenaline-pumping stunts from the comfort of their homes.
Mirai Unveils Fantasy Spectacle on Jio Hotstar from October 10th
Just a day later, the highly successful Telugu-language mythological fantasy film, Mirai, makes its digital debut. The Teja Sajja-starrer, directed by Karthik Gattamneni, will begin streaming on Jio Hotstar on October 10th.
Mirai—which translates to ‘Destiny’—tells the story of a young man chosen by fate to wield a powerful, ancient weapon in an eternal battle between good and evil, a theme that captivated audiences in its theatrical run. Known for its strong mythological foundation, immersive world-building, and impressive visual effects, the film established Teja Sajja as a notable young star in the pan-India cinema landscape.
Hindi Viewers Must Exercise Patience for Mirai
While the back-to-back premieres mark a win for OTT subscribers, there’s a minor setback for a section of the audience: Mirai will not be premiering in Hindi on October 10th.
Jio Hotstar is reportedly launching the film in its original Telugu, along with its dubbed versions in Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. However, Hindi viewers must wait a little longer to catch the film in their language. Industry buzz indicates that the Hindi-dubbed version will follow a separate window, likely arriving several weeks after the initial regional OTT release. Hindi fans are advised to closely follow official announcements for the later release date of the dubbed version.
In contrast, War 2 is expected to be available in multiple languages, including Hindi and Telugu, right from its Netflix premiere, offering immediate multilingual access to its vast viewer base.
The coming days clearly signal a major spike in streaming activity as these two genre-defining films enter the digital space, promising viewers a thrilling dose of action and fantasy to kick off the festive season. Lock in your dates and platforms—the OTT battle for weekend viewership begins now!
