Raakaasa is one of the notable Telugu films released in April 2026. After receiving a decent response during its theatrical run, the horror comedy is now set for its digital debut on Netflix. The streaming giant recently confirmed via social media that the film will be available for streaming from May 1, 2026.
While Netflix confirmed multilingual releases in Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, the absence of a Hindi version has raised questions. Most films today are released in all major languages to maximise reach. Despite its clear potential among Hindi-speaking audiences, Raakaasa has not been included in Netflix’s Hindi lineup, likely due to pre-existing agreements made before its theatrical release.
There is a strong possibility that the Hindi version may stream on ZEE5, given that Z Studios co-produced the film. If a ZEE5 release does not materialise, audiences will have to wait for an official update from the makers regarding the Hindi OTT rights.
Produced by Niharika Konidela, the film marks the feature directorial debut of Manasa Sharma and features music by Anudeep Dev. The film boasts an ensemble cast including Sangeeth Sobhan, Nayan Sarika, Vennela Kishore, Getup Srinu, Brahmaji, and Tanikella Bharani.
