Tamil actor-filmmaker Pradeep Ranganathan continues his winning streak with his latest release, Dude, which opened in theatres on October 17 during the Diwali season. The film received a strong response from audiences and went on to collect around ₹100 crore at the box office, marking Pradeep’s third consecutive film to achieve this milestone.
Even before its theatrical release, Dude was acquired by Netflix for a substantial price. The streaming platform has been following a shorter theatrical-to-OTT window, typically premiering new films four weeks after their release. Dude will follow suit, and is expected to start streaming on Netflix from Friday, November 14. An official confirmation is likely to be announced soon.
While this shortened gap benefits OTT audiences, a section of trade analysts believes it may impact the film’s long theatrical run and reduce the large-screen viewing experience.
Directed by Keerthiswaran, Dude stars Pradeep Ranganathan, Mamitha Baiju, R. Sarath Kumar, and Hridhu Haroon in pivotal roles. The film is produced by Naveen Yerneni and Y. Ravi Shankar under the Mythri Movie Makers banner, with music composed by Sai Abhyankkar.
Pradeep Ranganathan’s next theatrical release will be LIK: Life Insurance Kompany, a futuristic romantic comedy directed by Vignesh Shivan, scheduled to hit screens on December 18. Following this, Pradeep is set to return to direction with a new sci-fi project, in which he will also play the lead role.
