The recent blockbuster ‘Gadar 2’ may have taken the box office by storm, but its director, Anil Sharma, had a rather different experience with his previous film, ‘Vanvaas’. Released on December 20 last year, this family drama starring Nana Patekar, Utkarsh Sharma, and Simrat Kaur, failed to impress audiences and tanked at the box office, managing to rake in only ₹4.95 crore against a budget of ₹30 crore.
Despite its poor performance, ‘Vanvaas’ did garner praise for its emotional storyline and Nana Patekar’s outstanding performance, with many drawing comparisons to the iconic film ‘Baghban’, starring Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini. Now, nearly three months after its theatrical release, ‘Vanvaas’ is set to premier on the popular streaming platform Zee5.
When and Where to Watch ‘Vanvaas’ on OTT
The digital streaming of ‘Vanvaas’ is scheduled to begin on March 14, 2025, exclusively on Zee5. The announcement was made by sharing a poster featuring Nana Patekar and Utkarsh Sharma, with the OTT platform declaring, ‘If strangers can’t do what your own family can, then who is a bigger stranger than your own family? ‘Vanvaas’ premieres on March 14, only on ZEE5.’
