Release schedule for film Prahar

Overview

The release of the Bollywood biographical legal drama ‘Prahar’ (or ‘Prahaar’), starring Rajkummar Rao, has undergone scheduling changes. Originally slated for an August 7, 2026, release, producers postponed the film to avoid a crowded box-office window featuring major Hollywood and Indian productions, as well as to allow for more promotional time.

Following the delay, Maddock Films announced a new theatrical release date of October 16, 2026. Directed by Avinash Arun Dhaware, the film depicts the career of public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam, specifically focusing on high-profile legal battles such as the 1993 Mumbai bombings and the prosecution of Ajmal Kasab following the 26/11 attacks.
