Liger OTT Release Date:

Regarding the Liger OTT release date, it is said that Liger was released following the producer's decision to maintain an 8-week window before a film is available on any OTT platform. This is to guarantee that the theatres can make a sufficient amount of revenue. In consideration of this, Liger might not premiere on OTT until October. Reports suggest that Liger will be released on Hotstar on Diwali 2022. However, there's no official announcement regarding its OTT release date.
