Mohanlal’s much-awaited Malayalam film ‘Thudarum’ has already been released in cinemas in Malayalam and Telugu. Directed by Tharun Moorthy, the film is a mix of crime thriller and family drama, and it features a strong cast including Shobana, Binu Pappu, and Prakash Verma, alongside Mohanlal in the lead role.
Will Thudarum Release in Hindi on OTT?
Currently, Thudarum has not been released with Hindi dubbing. However, sources confirm that the Hindi version is coming soon on OTT, and fans are eagerly waiting.
According to OTT Play, JioHotstar acquired both the Malayalam and Hindi rights of the film before its theatrical release. This is good news for Hindi viewers, as the platform plans to stream the dubbed version in the coming weeks.

Expected Hindi OTT Release Date of Thudarum
Although no official Hindi release date has been announced, it is likely that Thudarum will premiere in Hindi by the last week of June 2025. Normally, films are released on OTT platforms 8 weeks after their theatrical run. However, since the Hindi version didn’t release in cinemas, it may come earlier—possibly within 4 weeks of the original release.
Box Office & Budget
On its opening day, Thudarum collected ₹14 crore worldwide. Reports suggest that JioHotstar purchased the OTT rights for ₹20 crore, while the film’s estimated budget is around ₹17–18 crore.
This film also holds a special place in Mohanlal’s career, as it marks his 360th film.
What is Thudarum About?
The story is set in Ranni, a town in Kerala on the banks of the Pamba River. Mohanlal plays Shanmugham, a driver living a peaceful life with his wife and two young children.
Things take a sharp turn when his vehicle gets falsely linked to a drug case. Shanmugham has no connection to drugs, but corrupt police officers frame him. The rest of the story revolves around his fight to prove his innocence while protecting his family.
Why the Film Stands Out
Malayalam cinema is known for its gripping stories, powerful acting, and solid direction. Thudarum continues this trend. When the trailer was released, it gave fans the vibe of another ‘Drishyam’-like film, although that wasn’t officially stated.
The film starts with emotional and family-based moments. But after 30 minutes, it takes a surprising twist that keeps you hooked. Director Tharun Moorthy’s storytelling leaves a lasting impression.
Mohanlal’s Brilliant Performance
Mohanlal’s acting in Thudarum is a highlight. His expressions and eye movements convey deep emotions, even without dialogue. Some viewers believe that if this movie doesn’t release in Hindi, Bollywood might remake it—possibly with Ajay Devgn in the lead.
Stay tuned on JioHotstar for the Hindi OTT release of Thudarum, which promises to be a gripping and emotional ride.
