Dhruv Vikram's 'Bison' is coming to Netflix soon
Dhruv Vikram's sports drama Bison Kaalamaadan drops on Netflix November 21, 2025.
After its Diwali theatrical run, the film—directed by Mari Selvaraj—brings the story of Vanathi Kittan (inspired by real-life kabaddi player Manathi Ganesan) to streaming.
At its heart, it's about fighting caste discrimination and chasing big dreams through kabaddi.
Cast, themes, and wider reach
The movie features a strong ensemble cast with Pasupathy, Ameer, Lal, Rajisha Vijayan, and Anupama Parameswaran. It explores identity and resilience in the face of systemic bias.
While Bison faced tough box office competition from Dude and Diesel, its Netflix release—with versions in Tamil plus Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam—means more people can catch this inspiring story wherever they are.
