Pathaan: Shah Rukh Khan-starrer’s OTT release date on Prime Video revealed

Just nine days before Pathaan, the eagerly anticipated action movie featuring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, was due to be released in theatres, the Delhi High Court on Monday instructed Yash Raj Films to make some adjustments for its online streaming premiere on Prime Video on April 25. Although the Central Board of Film Certification had already given its approval to the film, it will now have to be re-examined by the CBFC prior to its OTT debut.

The Delhi High Court directed the producers of Pathaan to include Hindi subtitles, audio description, and closed captions for the OTT release of the film to benefit people with visual and hearing impairments.

Justice Prathiba Singh, of a single-judge bench, noted the significance of a plea advocating for the right of visually and hearing impaired persons to access films as per the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016. In accordance with Section 42 of the Act, the government must take steps to ensure that all content is made available to people with disabilities in an accessible format. Especially with films, special measures must be taken to provide the same experience to hearing and visually impaired persons as those without disabilities.
