Aadujeevitham Tentative OTT Release Date Confirmed

Aadujeevitham, directed by Blessy, is about to embark on its digital journey after a successful theatrical run. The film achieved significant box office success and earned the title of highest-grossing Malayalam film of all time. Recent reports indicate that audiences will get to experience it soon on OTT.

Adapted from the novel by Benyamin, Aadujeevitham is based on a true story. Notably, the book was banned in Khaleeji nations other than the UAE, leading to the movie being banned in those countries. Moreover, it took the film almost 15 years to hit the big screen since Blessy first read the story in 2008.

The film boasts a stellar cast, including Prithviraj Sukumaran, Jimmy Jean-Louis, and K. R. Gokul in lead roles, with Talib Al Balushi, Rik Aby, Amala Paul, and Shobha Mohan in supporting roles. Released on March 28, 2024, with a budget of $9.6 million, Aadujeevitham grossed over $18.7 million worldwide.

When is Prithviraj Sukumaran’s Aadujeevitham coming out on OTT?

Recent reports from 123Telugu suggest that Aadujeevitham is expected to make its digital debut on May 26 on Disney Plus Hotstar. Furthermore, makers might treat audiences with an extended version of the film compared to the theatrical release. However, an official announcement regarding this is still pending.

During an interview, the lead actor described the plot and said, “This is the story of a man who has to spend time in the desert for 3.5 years, and in the final stages of Najeeb’s desert life, he started to move away from human existence. It’s now tough for him to speak to humans. He can’t even phrase lines with multiple words as he adapted to more animals (Goats) than humans now.”  Additionally, Prithviraj lost around 31 kgs for the role of Najeeb. He fasted for up to 72 hours and only drank water and black coffee.

As of now, eager viewers have to wait until the official announcement. It will remain to be seen when the platform announces its digital release. Stay tuned for more updates related to Aadujeevitham.
