I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with dozens of additions in the last week, including Sholay. Also new is the Telugu-dubbed version of 2000’s Kandukondain Kandukondain, a Tamil retelling of Sense and Sensibility starring Tabu and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. The most notable recent release is the Tiger Shroff-Ananya Panday flick Student of the Year 2, which is actually pretty good. Other newly added 2019 films include:
- Airaa (Tamil, Hindi-dubbed)
- Dhunki (Gujarati)
- Family 420 Once Again (Punjabi)
- Janamaithri (Malayalam)
- Kadaram Kondan (Tamil, also in 4K UHD)
- Kalikkoottukar (Malayalam)
- Kathanam (Telugu)
- Ninu Veedani Needanu Nene (Telugu)
- Prashna Parihara Shala (Malayalam)
I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix because Taapsee Pannu’s 2019 thriller Game Over is available for streaming in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. Other new additions include the 2019 Marathi release Saavat and the Punjabi movies Kaake Da Viyah and Marriage Palace.
