Retro OTT release date: Actor Suriya's movie Retro, which hit the big screen on May 1, is all set for its OTT debut.
The movie had received mostly great reviews from both the viewers and the critics. However, after a week of its theatrical release, its screenings across Tamil Nadu and Telangana drastically reduced.
Thanks to its online release, fans can now enjoy Suriya's movie from the comfort of their homes.
Suriya's Retro will make its online debut with OTT giant Netflix. This movie will begin streaming digitally on Saturday, May 31.
Officially announcing the OTT debut of Retro on its platform, Netflix shared a post on Instagram and said, “A sacred spear. A secret identity. A saga for the ages. Watch Retro, out 31 May, on Netflix in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.”
According to film industry analyst Sacnilk, Retro earned ₹97.25 crore globally during its theatrical run.
At the Indian box office, the movie minted a net of ₹60.49 crore.
The film was released on May 1 and majorly clashed with actor Nani's HIT 3, which was also released on the same date in Tamil and Telugu.
The film revolves around a reformed gangster who is determined to honour a promise to his wife and live a quiet life. However, it is not that easy for him as his past resurfaces, threatening the peace he has fought to build.
Retro, directed by Karthik Subbaraj, stars Suriya as the local gangster.
It is the first collaboration between Suriya and Subbaraj.
Pooja Hegde plays Suriya's love interest in the film. It also features Jayaram, Joju George, Karunakaran, Nassar, and Prakash Raj in prominent roles. Actor Shriya Saran also makes a special cameo.
