Streaming Video News: January 29, 2026

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix because the big day has arrived: Dhurandhar is now streaming on Netflix. Earlier this week, the streamer added the Telugu film Champion to its catalogue. Netflix also released a trailer for Season 2 of the Original Punjabi series Kohrra, which debuts February 11:

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s premiere of the new Hindi thriller series Daldal, starring Bhumi Pednekar. Earlier this week, the streamer added Karthi’s Tamil film Vaa Vaathiyaar to the catalogue just two weeks after its theatrical release.

It’s kind of a bummer of a week on Hulu in the United States as we didn’t get either of the 2025 theatrical releases that arrived on JioHotstar in India: the Hindi film Gustaakh Ishq and the Malayalam movie Sarvam Maya. I suspect this will be the norm going forward, with Hulu getting the Hotstar Specials original series and some random cable shows, but little else. I’m not optimistic about the long-term future of Indian content on Hulu as its parent company Disney figures out how to streamline its streaming services.

Streaming Video News: January 22, 2026

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s premiere of the Amazon Original Telugu movie Cheekatilo, starring Sobhita Dhulipala. Bhumi Pednekar’s grim-looking new crime series Daldal premieres January 29:

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with today’s premiere of the Hotstar Specials Hindi series Space Gen: Chandrayaan (also streaming in Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Tamil, and Telugu).

Finally, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the streaming debut of the Hindi film Tere Ishk Mein.

If the traditional “8-week theatrical exclusivity window for Hindi films” pattern holds true, Dhurandhar should become available for streaming next Thursday afternoon (January 29) in the United States. Netflix is reportedly the movie’s streaming partner, and they supposedly paid a ton of money for it. Given how well Dhurandhar continues to do at the box office, I won’t be surprised if they negotiate a deal to keep it off of Netflix for a couple weeks longer. I haven’t heard anything to indicate that that will happen, but it’s what I’d try to do if I’d produced Dhurandhar.
