Daayra, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran, is gearing up for its digital premiere after completing its theatrical run. Directed by National award-winning filmmaker Meghna Gulzar, the crime thriller explores the conflict between police authority and the rule of law.
The film is set to make its digital debut on November 13. The crime thriller, directed by Meghna Gulzar, will stream on Netflix. The platform has officially listed the film on its website, confirming its OTT premiere date.
The film initially arrived in theatres in both Hindi and Malayalam. While there have been reports suggesting that it could also be available in other regional languages, Netflix’s current listing categorises it as a Hindi thriller.
Alongside Kareena and Prithviraj, the film features an ensemble cast comprising Jitendra Joshi, Kanwaljit Singh, Achint Kaur, Anuja Sathe, Seema Azmi and Biswapati Sarkar.
Helmed and co-written by Meghna Gulzar, Daayra draws inspiration from real-life incidents. The film also marks another association between the filmmaker and Junglee Pictures, the production banner that previously collaborated with her on acclaimed projects such as Talvar and Raazi.
The narrative revolves around a disturbing rape and murder case that sparks widespread public outrage. However, the investigation takes an unexpected turn when four individuals suspected of being involved in the crime are killed in a police encounter. The incident brings the actions of the police under scrutiny, raising questions about the legality of the encounter, the use of authority and whether the officers followed the due process of law.
With its central focus on the complexities of the criminal justice system and the thin line between law enforcement and accountability, Daayra explores the conflict between public sentiment and the principles of justice.
Daayra was released in theatres on September 18, 2026, and earned widespread critical appreciation for its storytelling.
