Diwali Films: OTT Release Dates Locked and Ready to Stream

This year’s Diwali box office may not have matched last year’s festive fireworks in the Telugu states, but movie lovers still had several options to enjoy. Nearly half a dozen films — including dubbed releases — hit the big screen during the holiday weekend. With their theatrical runs now complete, these movies are gearing up for their digital debuts. Here’s a full rundown of when and where you can stream them:

Mithra Mandali – Prime Video
The first film to release during the Diwali season, Mithra Mandali, a comedy-drama, failed to make the desired impact at the box office. After an underwhelming three-week theatrical run, the makers released a recut version on Prime Video starting November 6.

Telusu Kada, Dude (Dubbed), and Bison (Dubbed) – Netflix
Three Diwali releases — Telusu Kada, Dude, and Bison — shared the same release weekend and have Netflix as their digital streaming partner. Following a four-week theatrical run, all three films are expected to premiere on November 14. While an official confirmation from Netflix is awaited, internal reports indicate that the announcement is imminent.

K Ramp – Aha Video
K Ramp, starring Kiran Abbavaram, emerged as a surprise performer with steady box-office returns and positive audience word-of-mouth. After completing a successful 28-day run, the film is set for its OTT release on Aha Video from November 15.

Thamma (Dubbed) – Prime Video
Thamma, the Telugu-dubbed version of Rashmika Mandanna’s Hindi film, follows the standard eight-week OTT gap as per Bollywood norms. The movie is expected to stream on Prime Video around mid-December.

Though this year’s Diwali season lacked a major blockbuster, many of these titles are likely to gain renewed attention on streaming platforms, giving audiences a second chance to enjoy the festive releases at home.
