Making the announcement that Indian 2 will stream on Netflix in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam from August 9, the official X (formerly Twitter) page of the platform wrote, “Thatha varaaru, kadhara vida poraaru. (Buckle up. Indian Thatha is back to take on the system again) #Indian2 is coming to Netflix on 9 August in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada! #Indian2OnNetflix.”
The film is being released on the platform less than a month after its theatrical release on July 12.
