13 November 2026 — Ranabaali, the Telugu period action drama starring Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna, arrives on Netflix today, 13 November 2026 — four weeks after its theatrical release on 16 October.
Netflix India confirmed the date on 9 November alongside a new poster, after briefly posting — then deleting — the same date on 2 November. The film streams in five languages: Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.
What Ranabaali is
- Story: Set in 19th-century Rayalaseema during British rule, against the Great Madras Famine of the 1870s. Vijay plays Singanamala Bobbili Ranabaali, a rebellious warrior who rises against a British commissioner to protect his region and people; Rashmika plays his wife Jayamma. Arnold Vosloo appears as the antagonist.
- Director: Rahul Sankrityan. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers with T-Series; music by Ajay-Atul.
- Cast: Vijay Deverakonda, Rashmika Mandanna, Arnold Vosloo, Easwari Rao, Luke McGibney.
- First pairing: It is the first film to pair Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna as a couple on screen.
- Theatrical run: The film opened at Rs 9.25 crore net in India on day one, per trade estimates cited by Filmverse, but collections fell sharply after the first weekend, with the entire third week bringing in just Rs 1.6 crore.
Why the Netflix premiere matters
Ranabaali is one of the biggest South Indian titles in this week’s packed OTT slate, alongside Jailer 2 on Prime Video (12 November) and Student of the Year: After Dark on JioHotstar (13 November). Its short four-week theatrical window — and the five-language release — make the Netflix debut the film’s real test with a wider audience, including Hindi-speaking viewers who did not catch it in cinemas.
