I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with two big new additions to the catalog: Ram Charan’s 2025 Telugu flick Game Changer and the world premiere of Boman Irani’s directorial debut The Mehta Boys.

Today’s other new global Hindi release is Sanya Malhotra’s Mrs. on ZEE5, a remake of the acclaimed Malayalam drama The Great Indian Kitchen.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix yesterday with the world premiere of the Oscar-nominated short drama film Anuja. It’s well-done and only 22 minutes, so give it a watch. On Friday, the new Original sports documentary series The Greatest Rivalry: India vs Pakistan debuts.

Over at What’s On Netflix, I updated my giant 2025 Indian content preview with all of the new Original series and films announced at Monday’s Next on Netflix India event.

Earlier this week, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with the addition of the Hindi action movie Kill (which I liked a lot). There’s something hinky going on with Hulu’s Indian collection right now, and I wrote about it a couple days ago. I’m not going to make sweeping changes to my Hulu page just yet, but I might have to in the near future.
