I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s premiere of the new YRF thriller series Mandala Murders. Check out my preview of Mandala Murders for What’s on Netflix to see if the show is for you.

Mersal (2017/Tamil)

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with the premiere of the new Hindi film Sarzameen (also available in Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil, and Telugu).

Finally, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the premiere of the new Hindi series Rangeen and the streaming debut of the Tamil movie Maargan.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with today’s world premiere of the Hindi horror film Bloody Ishq, directed by Vikram Bhatt.

Two more brand new Hindi films debuted directly on ZEE5 today: Manoj Bajpayee’s thriller Bhaiyya Ji and the drama Chalti Rahe Zindagi.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s streaming debut of two Hindi theatrical releases: the cricket drama Mr. & Mrs. Mahi and the thriller Savi. Netflix currently lists Savi in the catalog under its working title “Tum Hi Ho,” which star Divya Khossla said was rejected by director Abhinay Deo. Searching for either title will take you to the same movie.

Netflix launched the trailer for the sequel Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, which releases August 9:

Opening July 25: Kick

Salman Khan’s latest action film, Kick, opens in the Chicago area on July 25, 2014. A cast that includes accomplished actors like Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Randeep Hooda and a screenplay by novelist Chetan Bhagat lend Kick an air of sophistication.
