Glory Teaser: Pulkit Samrat's Never-Before-Seen Boxer Avatar Is Impressive. When Will Film Release On Netflix?

Mumbai, APRIL, 7 2026 : Netflix is set to premiere Glory on May 1, a first-of-its-kind sports thriller that steps into the ring with a story fuelled by revenge, ambition, a murder mystery, and a dysfunctional family. Set against the gritty, high-stakes world of boxing, the series dives into the brutal ecosystem.

The story, set in the heartland of Haryana, begins with the mysterious death of Nihal Singh, India's hope for an Olympic boxing medal. As ambition collides with rage and revenge takes over, Glory unravels a volatile web of relationships, power, and betrayal where the fight for glory is as personal as it is dangerous.

The power-packed cast features Divyenndu, Pulkit Samrat, Suvinder Vicky, Jannat Zubair, Ashutosh Rana, Sikandar Kher, Kunal Thakur, Sayani Gupta, Yashpal Sharma and Kashmira Pardeshi.

Opening up about the intensity of portraying Devinder Singh, Divyenndu shares, "With Glory, what drew me in was how raw this world is. Here, glory doesn't come from pride; it comes from anger and something deeply personal. Dev isn't in the ring, but everything around it shapes him. That's what makes him so unpredictable. This has been one of my most nuanced characters. He is tough and impulsive, wears his heart on his sleeve, and loves and hates with the same intensity. There's a lot of pain there, but also a kind of restraint... and somehow, he never loses his humour, which speaks to the character's grounding in the region. Working with Karan Anshuman for the second time was special - he pushes you into uncomfortable spaces and never lets you take the easy route with a character."

Dev and Ravi, both emotionally layered characters, are navigating through life-altering circumstances. Their journey is anything but easy because "glory demands tyaag, balidaan aur kasht" (sacrifice, loss and suffering).

Reflecting on his character, Pulkit Samrat says, "What pulled me into Glory was the truth of that world-it's tough, it's unforgiving, and that's what makes it beautiful, because every win matters and every step is earned. Ravi doesn't react, he absorbs-calm on the outside, fire within-and that space between control and breaking is where real strength is built. Playing him reminded me that greatness is about showing up again and again, even when it hurts, because champions are made in everything they survive. Grateful for this journey-this is just a glimpse."

Speaking about his role, Suvinder Vicky shares, "Raghubir Singh is not just a coach, he's a man who has built his entire life around discipline. His world doesn't allow for weakness, and neither does he. What fascinated me most was his silence. He doesn't say much, but everything he does is rooted in years of grit, sacrifice, and an unshakable belief in what boxing stands for. There's a quiet authority in that stillness. For Coach Raghubir, glory isn't emotional, it's earned through routine, through pain, through showing up every single day. The ring isn't just a place for him; it's a way of life... almost an obsession that supersedes everything else."

Created by Karan Anshuman and Karmanya Ahuja, and produced by Mohit Shah and Anshuman under the Atomic Films banner, Glory is written by Anshuman, Ahuja, and Vaibhav Vishal, and directed by Karan Anshuman and Kanishk Varma-marking the banner's push for bold, distinctive storytelling in entertainment.

The bell rings on Netflix when Glory steps into the ring on May 1.
