What Is ‘Dhurandhar Raw & Undekha’?

Unlike the sequel, Raw & Undekha is reportedly an uncut and extended version of the original Dhurandhar. Netflix teased the release with the line, “Aandhi aa rahi hai. Aur iss baar, extra ghatak.” The new version promises additional scenes, restored dialogues, and a rawer cinematic experience that fans felt was missing from the theatrical cut.

Fans Mistook It for ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’

The confusion began because Dhurandhar: The Revenge is already scheduled for an India OTT release on JioHotstar on June 4, while Netflix streaming is expected later on June 19. As soon as Netflix posted the announcement, fans assumed the sequel’s release date had suddenly changed.

Comments flooded social media with users asking: “Then what about JioHotstar?” while others joked that streaming platforms themselves looked confused.

CBFC Controversy Fuels the Buzz

The timing of the announcement became even more controversial because Dhurandhar recently faced criticism over censorship in India. Many viewers were upset that international audiences allegedly received a more violent and uncensored version, while Indian viewers watched a heavily edited theatrical release.

One viral post read: “A movie made for Indians, but only Indians get the censored version.” The release of Raw & Undekha is now being seen as Netflix’s answer to those complaints.
