Mumbai, September 28 - In the last couple of days, a number of Bollywood films have got the release date as the government of Maharashtra has permitted theaters to reopen from October 22. However, among the slate of films, Akshay Kumar's "Atrangi Re" has yet to get a release date.

While many are wondering why the makers haven't announced the theatrical release date of "Atrangi Re", which is ready for a long time now, it has now been revealed that the makers of the film might be opting for a direct-to-digital release via Netflix. It is produced by T-Series, Colour Yellow Productions, and Cape of Good Films.



Akshay Kumar too had hinted about the direct OTT release of "Atrangi Re" in a chat with Hindustan Times. "To be honest, I haven't yet included Atrangi Re in the list because we are still mulling over whether it should be a theatrical film or an OTT release. And OTT may simply be the medium of choice for Atrangi Re, as it looks right now", said Akshay.

Directed by Anand L Rai, the film also stars Dhanush and Sara Ali Khan in the lead roles. Akshay said that "Atrangi Re" is a never-heard-before subject and storyline so it's important for them to choose the best-suited platform to get a release.

While the official announcement is yet to be made, the movie has reportedly been confirmed to release on Netflix. It is also because there is hardly any release window left in the next 7-8 months. Interestingly, it will be Akshay's second direct OTT release after "Laxmmi", which premiered on Disney Plus Hotstar.
