I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s streaming debuts of Imtiaz Ali’s Main Vaapas Aaunga and the Tamil film Idhayam Murali. The new Original series Operation Safed Sagar premieres on Friday. I previewed the new show for What’s on Netflix several months ago. Also check out my July Indian roundup for What’s on Netflix as well as my piece on the most-watched Indian films and series on Netflix in the first half of 2026.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s additions of Manoj Bajpayee’s Governor, the Telugu film Oh Sukumari, and Season 2 of the Tamil series Vandandhi.
