Rakkasapuradhol OTT Release: When and Where to Watch the Raj B Shetty Thriller on ZEE5

Rakkasapuradhol OTT Release

Rakkasapuradhol is set to stream on ZEE5 after its theatrical run, with most trade reports pointing to an early–March 2026 digital premiere window.

Multiple outlets note that Zee Network picked up both the satellite and OTT rights even before the film hit cinemas on February 6, which is still a bit unusual for a Kannada thriller.

The makers haven’t announced a fixed OTT date, but the consensus is that it should land online roughly 30–40 days after release, likely around March 6–7, 2026, if current patterns hold.

What makes this interesting is that Rakkasapuradhol isn’t some giant pan‑India spectacle; it’s a moody, village‑set mystery about faith, fear, and a very stubborn cop.

Yet it walked into theatres with its post‑theatrical business already tied up, giving the team a bit of financial breathing room while reviews and word of mouth do their thing.

For viewers who like Raj B Shetty but don’t always get access to Kannada releases in local theatres, that early clarity, “okay, it’s definitely coming to ZEE5 soon”, is actually pretty helpful.

Where to Watch Rakkasapuradhol?

You’ll be able to watch Rakkasapuradhol on ZEE5 once its theatrical run wraps, with the film also available via OTTplay Premium, which aggregates content from ZEE5 and other platforms.

Zee Network has secured both the satellite broadcast rights and the digital streaming rights, so the movie’s entire post‑theatrical life sits inside that ecosystem.

Trade coverage suggests:

• The film was released in cinemas on February 6, 2026.

• It should hit ZEE5 roughly a month later, most likely in the first or second weekend of March 2026.

• It’s expected to stream in at least four languages – the original Kannada, plus Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam dubs.

One small but nice detail: Raj B Shetty’s earlier thriller 45, which also has music by Arjun Janya, is already on ZEE5, so Rakkasapuradhol will join an existing cluster of his films on the same service.

For anyone who likes to “fall down a rabbit hole” with one actor or filmmaker over a weekend, that makes ZEE5 a fairly straightforward destination.

Rakkasapuradhol Cast

Rakkasapuradhol brings together a solid ensemble of Kannada talent, led by Raj B Shetty in his first full‑fledged police role. Most listings and reviews highlight the following names.

• Raj B Shetty as SI Shiva

• Swathishta Krishnan

• Archana Kottige

• Anirudh Bhat

• B Suresh

• Gopal Deshpande

• Gowrav Shetty

• Siddanna

• Jahangir

• Nisha

• Tarun

Behind the camera, the film is directed by Ravi Saranga, with action star Dr. K. Ravi Verma backing it as producer in his first major production venture.

The music is by Arjun Janya, the cinematography by William David, and reviews have noted how the sound and visuals lean into the eerie mood of a village that lives half in superstition and half in fear.

The story follows SI Shiva, a troubled cop transferred to a seemingly sleepy village that suddenly finds itself haunted by a string of strange deaths.

The locals believe a fiery‑headed demon, Kolli Devva, is claiming victims; Shiva insists on treating it as a murder case and pushes back against the spiritual authority that rules the town.

It’s that clash, between folklore and forensics, between inherited belief and stubborn logic, that gives Rakkasapuradhol its bite, and that should translate quite well when the film finally lands on living room screens next month.
