Overview
- Multiple Indian outlets report that Netflix has acquired Bhooth Bangla's digital rights and that the film is scheduled to stream on Netflix on June 12, 2026, but neither Netflix nor the film's makers have issued an official confirmation.
- The film, directed by Priyadarshan and starring Akshay Kumar with an ensemble cast including Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav and Tabu, opened in theatres on April 17, 2026 and has been cited in reports as one of 2026's top-grossing Indian/Hindi films.
- Some outlets have published an estimated OTT sale price of about ₹60 crore; that figure and the reported worldwide box-office totals are unverified estimates and have not been confirmed by audited statements.
- A vendor told Mid-day that Balaji Telefilms owes roughly ₹30 lakh in fees for work on the film, and Balaji issued an official statement denying any unpaid contractual dues, leaving the payment dispute unresolved.
- Watch for formal confirmation from Netflix or the producers and for any public updates on vendor payments or sequel plans, since mid-June streaming would accelerate the film's move into franchise discussions and broaden audience access.
