Satluj, starring Diljit Dosanjh, started streaming on Zee5 on Friday, but on Sunday, it was removed from the OTT platform. Now, according to a report, amid the controversy, the OTT platform saw an increase of around 374% in downloads overseas.
Diljit Dosanjh-starrer Satluj had a silent release on ZEE5 on July 3, 2026. The film received good reviews from critics, and even the audience liked it. But on Sunday, the OTT platform shared a statement saying the film had been removed. While the film's removal has started chatter in India, amid this ban, reportedly, Satluj is getting a great response overseas.
A source told NDTV, "Although there was a clear increase in interest and traffic on ZEE5 after the release of Satluj, precise official figures showing how much app downloads increased are not publicly available. The platform has only stated that it received a tremendous response, but without official data, it is difficult to make any definitive comparison."
"However, I can say that, excluding India, monthly downloads of the app in overseas markets increased by approximately 374 per cent. The film is good and portrays the truth to a considerable extent," the source added.
Meanwhile, ZEE5 has not yet shared any statement regarding the increase in downloads of its app overseas.
