Plot: A Refreshing Take on Modern Relationships

Dude is a light-hearted romantic comedy that captures the chaos of love, friendship, and personal growth. The story follows Dude Agan (Pradeep Ranganathan), a carefree young man whose life spirals into confusion when he finds himself in a love triangle.

The film’s narrative mixes humour, emotion, and introspection, portraying the ups and downs of modern relationships through Ranganathan’s signature comedic lens.

Box Office Performance

Dude opened to strong box office numbers, recording a ₹9.75 crore net opening in India — with ₹6.5 crore from the Tamil version and ₹3.25 crore from the Telugu version. The film’s worldwide opening stood at ₹22 crore (US$2.6 million), marking the biggest opening of Pradeep Ranganathan’s career.

Even weeks after its release, Dude continues to attract audiences to theatres, further solidifying its commercial success.

Satellite and Streaming Rights

While Netflix holds the digital streaming rights, Zee Tamil and Zee Thirai have reportedly acquired the satellite television rights for Dude. This ensures that the film will eventually reach a wider audience across multiple platforms.

With its engaging storyline, relatable characters, and Pradeep Ranganathan’s signature charm, Dude is one of the most anticipated Tamil films to arrive on OTT this month. Fans can soon relive the fun and chaos of Dude from the comfort of their homes when it premieres on Netflix on November 14, 2025.
