Generally, OTT content in India does not undergo active censoring, which is why many films are expected to stream in their uncut and uncensored versions on platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. This has set a clear expectation among audiences, especially for gritty and raw films.

In this context, viewers anticipated Netflix to premiere the uncut and uncensored version of its much-talked-about outing Dhurandhar, which began streaming last night in multiple Indian languages. However, Netflix ended up throwing a massive curveball at Indian audiences.

Instead of releasing an extended or uncensored cut, Netflix surprisingly streamed a version that is even shorter than the theatrical print. Nearly ten minutes of footage from the theatrical version was reportedly trimmed further for the OTT release. To make matters worse, all the cuss words were muted, leaving fans extremely disappointed.

Audiences who were hoping for a raw and rustic viewing experience on Netflix were left gutted, as the OTT cut of Dhurandhar turned out to be significantly weaker than its theatrical counterpart. Social media was soon flooded with criticism, with fans calling out Netflix for its careless and baffling approach.

This isn’t the first time Netflix has faced backlash for such decisions. Earlier, the platform received heavy criticism for failing to release the uncut and uncensored version of Animal. Unfortunately, it appears that the streaming giant hasn’t learned from that experience, as Dhurandhar now joins the list of films where Netflix’s OTT version has left audiences frustrated and disappointed.
