Dhurandhar: The Revenge – Raw and Uncut
The international OTT version, titled Dhurandhar: The Revenge – Raw and Uncut, reportedly contains several scenes that were either shortened or toned down in theatres. Viewers overseas have described it as more graphic, brutal and emotionally intense than the CBFC-approved theatrical cut released in India.
Social media users have especially pointed out the restoration of violent sequences, extended action moments and uncensored dialogue. Several scenes that were missing from the theatrical release, despite appearing in the trailers, are now visible in the Netflix version.

Graphic violence restored in OTT cut
According to viewers, the opening sequence featuring Jaskirat’s violent rampage now includes an uncut hammer attack that had been shortened in theatres. Another scene in the Muridke climax, where Ranveer Singh’s character crushes a man’s head with a cement block, also remains fully intact in the OTT version.Story continues below this ad
Fans have also highlighted extended moments from the Lyari Gang War chapter, including a sequence where Jaskirat aka Hamza attacks a man using a burning fireball.
Unmuted abuses and more beheading scenes
The theatrical version had faced criticism for muting or partially censoring several cuss words. However, viewers say the international cut leaves the dialogue untouched, with subtitles also translating the abuses more accurately. One sequence during the Lyari Gang War shows Hamza killing gangsters slamming a shop shutter onto their necks.
The controversial ‘football with severed head’ scene
One of the most talked-about additions involves gangster Uzair Baloch playing football with Arshad Pappu’s severed head. The Netflix cut reportedly depicts the scene in full. Fans also noticed that another shot from the trailer, omitted from theatres, has now been restored.
Viewers have also pointed out changes in Jaskirat’s emotional response following Pinda’s death. According to reactions online, the OTT version presents a calmer and more restrained performance compared to the theatrical release.Story continues below this ad
Netizens react
Social media has been flooded with reactions from viewers watching the uncensored version overseas. One user wrote, “Nahhh, some of these uncensored scenes from Dhurandhar The Revenge on Netflix are so much more brutal, detailed and immersive. CBFC really butchered what could’ve been the greatest theatrical experience ever for Indian audiences.”
Another posted, “Sequences still missing in Dhurandhar: The Revenge (RAW & UNDEKHA version) on Netflix International. It’s uncensored with some elaborated gory scenes earlier trimmed CBFC.”
Another viewer shared, “The ott print of Dhurandhar 2 is raw and brutal, no beep nor any scenes has been cut, absolutely jhakkar experience.”
One more reaction read, “#DhurandharTheRevenge (Raw & Undekha) is INSANE. The Brutality is Just at its PEAK. Arguably, The MOST BRUTAL FILM OF INDIAN CINEMA HORY.”Story continues below this ad
However, not everyone seemed impressed the film. One viewer reacted, “Successfully Wasted 4 hours on Dhurandhar 2. The only good thing I realised was how great our PM Modi ji really is. #Dhurandhar2TheRevenge.”
