Directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, the film opened in theatres worldwide on November 5, 2026. Here is everything you need to know about Ramayana OTT release, streaming platform, cast and sequel. Will Ramayana stream "free" online? Meaning will it be available on JioHotstar to current subscribers? Find out later in article.

Ramayana OTT Release: When And Where To Watch

Ramayana OTT release will happen on JioHotstar. The streamer has bagged the digital streaming rights in India through a partnership with producer Prime Focus Studios. The announcement was made on October 22, ahead of the film's theatrical release. However, this is not a conventional streaming arrangement. Instead of arriving as part of the platform's regular movie catalogue, the film will be made available through a dedicated on-demand purchase option after its exclusive cinema window.

As far as Ramayana OTT release date is concerned, there is no confirmed schedule. Since the film arrived in cinemas on November 5, audiences will have to wait until its exclusive theatrical window is over before the film streams online on JioHotstar.

Will Ramayana Stream For "Free" On JioHotstar?

Viewers with an existing JioHotstar subscription should take note of the release arrangement. Ramayana will follow a pay-per-view model, which means audiences will have to pay separately to access the film. It will not automatically become available with a regular monthly or annual subscription. The exact rental or purchase price has not been revealed yet. More details about the on-demand offering are expected closer to its digital release.
