Streaming details of Bethlehem Kudumba Unit

For those waiting to watch the film at home, JioHotstar reportedly holds its post-theatrical streaming rights. However, the makers have not officially announced the digital premiere date yet. There have also been reports that the OTT release could be delayed as the film continues to perform well in theatres.

According to a report by 123Telugu, citing buzz on social media, the makers are considering delaying the digital premiere because the film is still drawing audiences to theatres. This information has not been officially confirmed by the film's team or JioHotstar.




For now, the film continues its theatrical run. An official announcement from the makers or streaming platform will be needed to confirm exactly when audiences can watch the movie online.

Released on August 21, Bethlehem Kudumba Unit has reportedly crossed the Rs 300 crore mark worldwide. The film stars Nivin Pauly and Mamitha Baiju in the lead roles and is directed by Girish A. D., who previously helmed Premalu.

The film has emerged as one of the biggest theatrical successes in recent Malayalam cinema. Its strong performance has continued even after its initial weeks in theatres, helping it reach the Rs 300 crore milestone.

The movie is backed by Bhavana Studios and features an ensemble cast in addition to its lead pair. The story combines romance and comedy with the dynamics of a close-knit group of characters.

Nivin Pauly celebrates Rs 300 crore success

Nivin Pauly also acknowledged the film's box-office achievement on social media. After Bethlehem Kudumba Unit crossed the Rs 300 crore worldwide mark, the actor thanked audiences for their response.

In his post on X, Nivin expressed gratitude for the “endless love” received by the film. He also remembered music composer Vishnu Vijay, saying that the frame would have felt complete with his presence.

Bethlehem Kudumba Unit becomes a major Malayalam hit

The film's reported worldwide collection has also put it ahead of several recent Malayalam blockbusters. Bethlehem Kudumba Unit has reportedly surpassed Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra, which had collected around Rs 302 crore worldwide.

It has also moved past Mohanlal's L2: Empuraan and Thudarum, which reportedly earned around Rs 265 crore and Rs 234 crore, respectively.

She was also seen opposite Suriya in Vishwanath and Sons, directed by Venky Atluri. The Tamil-Telugu bilingual drama reportedly crossed Rs 200 crore during its theatrical run.
