I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the streaming debut of Emraan Hashmi’s sequel Awarapan 2.

Finally, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Zee5 with the Bengali film Keu Bole Biplobi Keu Bole Dakat.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the streaming premiere of War 2. The main catalogue entry features Hindi and Tamil dialogue options than can be chosen from the audio menu. There is a separate catalogue entry for the Telugu-dubbed version of War 2. I have no idea why. The animated series Kurukshetra: The Great War of Mahabrata debuts October 10, but that’s the last official Netflix premiere date on the calendar for now.

In other news, Netflix made some user interface changes to downplay identifying Netflix Original shows and films as Netflix Originals. Again, I am not sure why.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with the premiere of Konkona Sen Sharma’s Hindi series Search: The Naina Murder Case (also available in Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Tamil, and Telugu).

Finally, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the addition of the Hindi-dubbed version of Rajnikanth’s film Coolie, renamed Coolie: The Powerhouse.

The big Indian Independence Day 2024 theatrical releases are now streaming!

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s addition of Stree 2: Sarkate Ka Aatank. If you need a refresher, Stree was recently added to Amazon Prime as well. I really enjoyed the first film, so I’m excited to watch the sequel.

John Abraham’s action flick Vedaa is now on ZEE5.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the streaming debut of the dramedy Khel Khel Mein, which stars Akshay Kumar, Taapsee Pannu, and Vaani Kapoor.

If that’s not enough Akshay Kumar for you, his July release Sarfira is expected to land on Hulu tomorrow. I’ll update this post and my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with a link when it becomes available. [Update: Sarfira is now streaming on Hulu.]
