Raid 2 OTT Premiere: When And Where To Watch Ajay Devgn's Latest Film Online
Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 to stream on Netflix from June 27. Here's everything you need to know about the film's OTT release, cast, plot, and more.
After its theatrical run earlier this year, Raid 2 is now set to make its way to the digital space. The sequel to the 2018 sleeper hit Raid will begin streaming on Netflix starting June 27, 2025, offering viewers a gripping dive back into the world of white-collar crime, corruption, and high-stakes justice.
Headlined once again by Ajay Devgn as the stoic and relentless IRS officer Amay Patnaik, Raid 2 draws inspiration from the real-life 1980s income tax raid on businessman Sardar Inder Singh — one of the longest and most sensational raids in Indian history. While the film hit theatres on May 1, reactions from critics and audiences have been mixed, with praise for its performances and real-world relevance, and some critique around its pacing and narrative execution.
Taking over the female lead duties from Ileana D'Cruz is Vaani Kapoor, who stars opposite Devgn in this installment. The film also features Riteish Deshmukh in a key role, adding further star power to the ensemble.
Much like its predecessor, Raid 2 focuses on the cat-and-mouse game between the taxman and those trying to game the system — only this time, the stakes are higher and the opposition even more powerful. Devgn reprises his role as Amay Patnaik, an upright Indian Revenue Service officer who won't back down, no matter how influential his targets may be.
Directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, who also helmed the original, the film is written by Ritesh Shah, Jaideep Yadav, Karan Vyas, and Gupta himself. Backed by Panorama Studios and T-Series, the production boasts a strong lineup of producers including Abhishek Pathak, Pragya Singh, Krishan Kumar, Gaurav Nanda, Bhushan Kumar, and Kumar Mangat Pathak.
For fans of investigative thrillers rooted in reality, Raid 2 promises an intense watch. And for those who missed it in theatres, the Netflix premiere on June 27 is a date to mark.

Box Office: Saiyaara enters the Rs 100 crore club in 4 days flat; Monday higher than Friday for Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer
Saiyaara, directed by Mohit Suri and starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda is enjoying a gravity-defying run at the box office. After a stellar first weekend of Rs 82 crore net, the movie has collected Rs 22.25 - 22.75 crore on day 4. To put things into perspective, the collections are higher than the opening Friday, and the footfalls are higher than both Friday and Saturday. Total collections of Saiyaara stand at Rs 104.50 crore and we are witnessing history right before our eyes. The Day Wise India Net Collections Of Saiyaara Are As Under Saiyaara Nets Higher Than Opening Day On First Monday; A First For A Film With A Rs 20 Crore Plus Net India Start Saiyaara is a box office force like none other, in recent memory. We have never had a Rs 20 crore plus net India opener, actually growing in collections on non-Holiday Monday. It has become the first film featuring debutants to enter the Rs 100 crore club. For it to enter the club in just 4 days is unbelievable. With Saiyaara, the total number of Rs 100 crore plus India net grossers from Bollywood in 2025 stand at 7, the other 6 being Chhaava, Housefull 5, Raid 2, Sitaare Zameen Par, Sky Force and Sikandar. The bookings are robust for 'Discount Tuesday' with footfalls sure to be higher than Monday. If the collections see a drop on Tuesday, it will likely be due to low average ticket prices. A week one of Rs 160 crore net is certain, and that means the lifetime collections of this year's biggies Housefull 5, Raid 2 and Sitaare Zameen Par will mostly be breached in 7 days flat. To note, this phenomenon is occuring for a film that was expected to open to Rs 3 - 4 crore, a week before release, with the ceiling being Rs 5 crore. Expectations for the Mohit Suri film increased once the pre-bookings started. But still, a Rs 20 crore plus day one number was something that never crossed anyone's mind. Now, the film is on course for a lifetime number that will be remembered for decades. International Markets Have Also Got On Board For Saiyaara The collections of the film being higher on Monday than the opening day is not just an India-wide phenomenon. The international markets have got on board. With Monday bookings in sync with the first Saturday, the romantic-drama is set for a lifetime number of over USD 10 million.

Family Guy Pokes Fun At Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Once Again
Family Guy, an American sitcom known for its edgy humour, targeted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle once again in the July 17 episode, named Twain's World. In the episode, Brian and Stewie travel back in time, with the talking dog comparing the couple's marriage to infamous events like the Crusades and Hitler. Watch the video here: When Stewie said that some actions during travelling through the past could "change the course of history." "You always say that, but doesn't history pretty much suck?" Brian responded, using the Hitler and the Crusades example. Stewie quipped, "Prince Harry marrying Meghan Markle". The show depicted a butler handing Harry a check for "millions from Netflix for... no one knows what," with Harry responding, "Put it with the rest of them." The episode also made fun of their social media influence as Meghan's character showed receiving a notification, saying, "Babe, time to do our daily $250,000 sponsored Instagram post for Del Taco." It also portrayed Harry's regret as the animated prince said, "I shouldn't have left the made-up nonsense." It implies that he misses his royal life. This is the second time Family Guy has targeted the couple, with the first being in 2023. South Park, an American animated television series, also mocked them in a 2023 episode, The Worldwide Privacy Tour. Source-based reports mentioned Meghan was "upset and overwhelmed" by the previous episode and "annoyed by South Park but refuses to watch it all." Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield told GB News that the constant ridicule might be taking a toll on the couple's public image, saying they're "continuously a Hollywood punchline" that's "devastating to them". "I would say that this is a definite blow for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle," Kinsey noted. "When they stepped down as working royals, they said they were going to live a life of service. And now Meghan is shilling loose fruit spread, and Prince Harry is doing polo docs that didn't even hit the top 3,000 on Netflix last year."

Brook opens up on verbal volleys during Lord's Test
Tempers flared during England's 22-run win at Lord's with players from both sides engaging in verbal volleys. However, star England batter Harry Brook, stated that his team tried playing 'in the spirit of the game as much as possible' before the Indian players provoked them on the third evening. 'Their lads went hard at Creeps [Zak Crawley] and Ducky [Ben Duckett] on that night when Bumrah bowled that single over. We watched that and we re-assessed and we thought it was the right time to go (hit) back at them,' Brook said on Monday. 'I think it put them under a little bit more pressure. Obviously, (they were) chasing a low score but on a tough pitch. It might have given them that little bit of added pressure. Thankfully, they ended up crumbling, and we won the game.' England managed to defend 192, and Brook revealed that he received several compliments for the memorable victory. 'I have had a lot of compliments. Everybody said it was awesome to watch and it looked like there were 11 versus two out there when we were fielding. It was good fun; it was tiring, but it made fielding a lot more enjoyable,' he said.
