Global Theatrical Release and Prime Video Streaming
The Malayalam original, starring Mohanlal as the legendary Georgekutty, is officially scheduled to hit global theaters on May 21, 2026, a date chosen to coincide with the superstar’s birthday.
The new date comes after their previous schedule, which had set the original date for April. For digital viewing options, Amazon Prime Video has announced that it owns exclusive digital rights to the movie.
The platform will offer the film to stream after its theatrical release through multiple formats, which include SVOD and possible TVOD rentals, allowing fans from around the world to watch the ending legally.
October Premiere and Hindi Remake Distribution
The Hindi adaptation, which stars Ajay Devgn as Vijay Salgaonkar, will maintain its original thematic elements until its scheduled release on October 2, 2026.
The film uses this particular date to honor the “October 2nd” alibi, which served as the main plot element in the first movie. The Hindi audience must wait until autumn to discover how the Bollywood team will adapt the script, which the Malayalam version will release earlier during summer.
The Hindi version will begin its distribution through theaters before moving to digital platforms, which will probably happen on a major streaming service that will be announced before the release date.
