Streaming Video News: January 15, 2026

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s streaming debut of the Hindi war film 120 Bahadur, starring Farhan Akhtar. Earlier this week, the streamer added the Telugu movie Dhandoraa.

New today on ZEE5 is the Hindi family drama Safia/Safdar, which made its World Premiere at the 2025 Chicago South Asian Film Festival.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix earlier this week with the premiere of the Original Hindi thriller series Taskaree: The Smuggler’s Web. For more information on the new show from director Neeraj Pandey, check out my preview for What’s on Netflix.

Today, Netflix announced its annual Pandigai slate of licensed Tamil films that will stream on Netflix in 2026 after their theatrical runs end. Cinema Express has the full list of titles. (Update: Netflix revealed their Telugu post-theatrical slate the next day.)
