After almost a decade on Amazon Prime, the Yash Raj Films catalogue is back on Netflix — sort of. The seven movies that released from 2021-2023 are still on Prime for now, and only a handful of YRF movies are currently available on Netflix. Here’s why.
Netflix and YRF announced that are making the reintroduction of the back catalogue into a series of events, adding movies around a theme a few at a time. Besides the addition of War to augment the recently added War 2, the first theme was a celebration of Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday (November 2). The following films were added to Netflix on November 1:
There are at least seven more themed events to come through the end of 2025 and into early 2026. YRF and Netflix didn’t specify all the titles being added for every event. December’s Holiday Season event is especially busy, with two new films added each day from December 12-28.
I actually like this idea, as it draws attention to titles that folks may have forgotten about or missed when they initially released. It would be easy to overlook the individual titles if the whole 70-ish catalogue was added at once, so it’s nice to give different films the spotlight. These are ready-made marathons are kinda cool.
Here’s the schedule that’s been announced, with dates and themes. Note that the dates announced are for midnight in India, so we may actually get them in the United States on the afternoon of the day before. (Being able to watch a Dhoom marathon on Thanksgiving would kick ass.) Where possible, I’ve added links to the old Netflix catalogue entries from 2015 so you can add the movies to your “Remind Me” queue, if you wish. At the very bottom, I’ve added any of the other YRF titles I still have working links for that weren’t mentioned in the above press release.

What do you think of this release strategy? Do you like this mini-events, or would you rather have the whole catalogue available at once?
