On 21 April 2021, Khan further announced that Radhe will be released in all operational theatres,[59] and in pay-per-view and digital streaming method through Zee Plex and ZEE5.[60] It became the first Indian film to have an hybrid release as similar to Hollywood films,[61] as theatres in Mumbai and Delhi were shut which affected releases of other Hindi films.[62] The move was welcomed by film trade analysts and exhibitors as it may become a "turning point" for the Indian cinema business and believed it as a "sustainable exhibition model" during the pandemic. Advanced bookings for the film in the Middle East regions (United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain) began on 29 April 2021, two weeks before the release schedule.[64]

The makers further reinstated the plans to release directly through Zee Plex and ZEE5 in India and releasing theatrically in overseas countries, citing the closure of theatres in the country due to COVID-19 second wave.[65] Salman Khan, in a zoom video interaction, apologised the theatre owners that the collection of the film will be poor due to a limited theatrical release.[66] Khan insisted the film's release due to the heavy losses incurred by his production company Salman Khan Films, because of its nearly non-existent theatrical release in India, and further added its importance during the time of a pandemic crisis as well as its efficiency in cheaper rates, so many people will watch the film at the comfort of their homes.Khan further reassured the plans of a theatrical re-release when the pandemic subsides and people feel safe to watch the film in theatres.
