I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s streaming debut of the animated film Mahavatar Narsimha and yesterday’s premiere of the Hindi series The Ba***ds of Bollywood. I wrote about everything you need to know about the new show from Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan for What’s on Netflix. In other news, the sports drama Soorma expires October 13.

The trailer for Khoobsurat released today. This fish-out-of-water tale starring Sonam Kapoor looks like it could be cute, and Disney’s name above the title should at least ensure high production values. Khoobsurat hits theaters on September 19.
