Tag Archives: Hindi Series on ZEE5

Streaming Video News: July 31, 2025

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s streaming debut of both versions of Housefull 5 (each with a different ending): Housefull 5A and Housefull 5B.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s streaming debut of the Telugu film Thammudu.

ZEE5 premiered the new Hindi series Bakaiti today, starring Rajesh Tailang and Sheeba Chaddha. It has just 7 episodes that average about 20-minutes long — so about two-and-a-half hours to finish the series.

The big news this week is that Aamir Khan opted to make his recent theatrical release Sitaare Zameen Par available for rent on YouTube rather than sell the rights to a subscription streaming service. Click here to rent Sitaare Zameen Par in the United States for $6.99. It has Hindi and Turkish audio options and a “CC” logo, which I hope means English subtitles, but I haven’t verified that yet. News stories had made it seem like Khan would host the rental on his Aamir Khan Talkies page, but the rental is done via the YouTube Movies & TV channel.

Streaming Video News: December 5, 2024

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s world premiere of director Rahul Dholakia’s firefighter drama Agni, starring Pratik Gandhi and Saiyami Kher. Yesterday, the Telugu movie Matka was added to the streaming catalog.

Earlier this week, Amazon announced that the Hindi film Girls Will Be Girls will release on Prime on December 18 following after a successful festival run. It’s unclear if this applies to Prime globally or if it’s only in India, as Girls Will Be Girls is currently available for rent and purchase on Amazon in the United States.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s streaming debut of Vasan Bala’s jailbreak flick Jigra, starring Alia Bhatt. The Tamil film Amaran was added yesterday, and the Rajkummar Rao-Triptii Dimri comedy Vicky Vidya ka Woh Wala Video comes to Netflix tomorrow afternoon.

ZEE5 debuted the Hindi series Maeri today.

Streaming Video News: August 29, 2024

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s addition of the Telugu theatrical release Buddy and the premiere of the Original limited series IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack. The surprise addition earlier this week was Student of the Year 2, which I kinda liked due to Ananya Panday’s performance.

The only other streaming debut of note today is the premiere of Kay Kay Menon’s new thriller series Murshid on ZEE5.

Have a great Labor Day weekend! — Kathy
