If you’re into Indian mythology or just love awesome animated stories, you’ve probably heard about Mahavatar Narsimha. This movie is making waves — not only for its amazing visuals but also because it’s now the highest-grossing Indian animated film ever. So, the big question on everyone’s mind is: “When is Mahavatar Narsimha hitting OTT?”

Let’s break it all down — in simple language and with facts you can trust.


What is Mahavatar Narsimha All About?

Directed by Ashwin Kumar, this animated mythological drama brings to life the epic tale of Prahlad, a young boy who defies his tyrant dad Hiranyakashipu. It shows how Lord Vishnu takes on the fierce Narsimha avatar (half-man, half-lion) to protect his devotee and bring back righteousness.

Released on July 25, 2025, in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam, the movie quickly grabbed attention with its grand animation, spiritual depth, and mass appeal. It also released in 3D, making it even more of a visual treat!

That’s HUGE — especially for an Indian animated film. It officially became the highest-grossing animated movie in Indian cinema history.
