Streaming Video News: March 20, 2026

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the streaming debut of Sunny Deol’s war drama Border 2.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the addition of the Telugu film Vishnu Vinyasam. Yesterday, Amazon revealed it’s 2026 slate of Indian Original movies and series. I included all the of titles that were announced with “first look” videos in the “Coming Soon” section on my Amazon Prime page, but Variety India has details on all of the newly announced titles and returning series.

As of right now, only episodes 3 & 6 of the new Hindi series Chiraiya are available on Hulu. I’ll update my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with links to every language version when they finish uploading all of the episodes.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with a few new additions today: the 2026 theatrical releases Funky (Telugu) and Pennum Porattum (Malayalam), plus the Netflix Original Tamil film Made in Korea. Note that Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees (which I thought was fine) expires from Netflix on March 15.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the new Tamil series Local Times, Season 3 of the Hindi series Aspirants, and the 2026 Telugu film Couple Friendly (also available dubbed in Tamil).

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

If none of these new titles interest you, check out my Best Bollywood Movies of 2025 post. All ten films on the list are great and are currently available for streaming in the United States.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the premiere of Anil Kapoor’s new Original thriller film Subedaar. Also new on Prime this week are Anupam Kher’s directorial Tanvi the Great and Annagaru Vostaru, the Telugu-dubbed version of the Tamil film Vaa Vaathiyaar.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the streaming debut of the 2026 Tamil film With Love. Over the weekend, the Hindi movies Raazi (which I loved) and Gippi were added to Netflix. I don’t think Gippi has ever been available for streaming the US before.

The Netflix Original series Hello Bachhon premieres on Friday. Netflix also announced an April 3 premiere date for Maamla Legal Hai Season 2.

I did not update my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu because there’s no sign of the new Hotstar Specials Telugu series Vikram on Duty yet. These delays seem to be the norm right now. I had an interesting exchange with @disneyplusnews about the future of Indian content on Hulu, and the days may be numbered. There’s a chance we could get a separate JioHotstar app in the US instead at some point, but I could see their parent company Disney passing on that in order to save money on streaming rights. I don’t have any inside information, it just seems like something is afoot since Hotstar titles are taking even longer to shop up on Hulu. We’ll see.

Streaming Video News: January 22, 2026

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with today’s premiere of the Amazon Original Telugu movie Cheekatilo, starring Sobhita Dhulipala. Bhumi Pednekar’s grim-looking new crime series Daldal premieres January 29:

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with today’s premiere of the Hotstar Specials Hindi series Space Gen: Chandrayaan (also streaming in Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Tamil, and Telugu).

Finally, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with the streaming debut of the Hindi film Tere Ishk Mein.

If the traditional “8-week theatrical exclusivity window for Hindi films” pattern holds true, Dhurandhar should become available for streaming next Thursday afternoon (January 29) in the United States. Netflix is reportedly the movie’s streaming partner, and they supposedly paid a ton of money for it. Given how well Dhurandhar continues to do at the box office, I won’t be surprised if they negotiate a deal to keep it off of Netflix for a couple weeks longer. I haven’t heard anything to indicate that that will happen, but it’s what I’d try to do if I’d produced Dhurandhar.

In solidarity with those striking against ICE in Minnesota on Friday, I won’t be working on the site tomorrow. Here are some actions you can take to support justice, whether or not you live in Minnesota: https://iceoutforgood.org/

The new Netflix Original Hindi comedy series Single Papa debuts on Friday.

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with the addition of the Telugu film 12A Railway ColonyAmazon also added the Telugu version of Jatadhara, but not the Hindi version.

ZEE5 premiered a new Hindi film starring Radhika Apte today: Saali Mohabbat.

Months after Aamir Khan took his movies off of streaming services and made them available for rent on YouTube, another movie rental platform has debuted as a viewing option. The social cataloging service Letterboxd (follow me on Letterboxd here) has launched a virtual video store in specializing in hard-to-find films. One of the first movies they are offering is Anurag Kashyap’s thriller Kennedy, which played at the Cannes Film Festival and 2023 and then disappeared. It never released in theaters or on any streaming service. It’s now available for rent in select countries (not India, unfortunately) until January 9, 2026. In the US, a 48-hour rental costs $19.99 — not cheap, but fair considering it’s been impossible to find until now. You can rent Kennedy here, or check out the other movies available for rent.

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with today’s streaming debuts of Kajol’s horror flick Maa and the Tamil film Maareesan. There are more upcoming Netflix expiration dates to be aware of, besides those I mentioned last week. I’m especially sad to see Cargo leave. Here’s the films on the way out:

This isn’t related to Indian cinema, but I wrote a piece for What’s on Netflix about what animated films to watch if your kids are obsessed with Kpop Demon Hunters and you need to redirect them to something different. This is a global problem. 😉

The Telugu movie Hari Hara Veera Mallu joined the catalog earlier this week. Prime made two big announcements today, including an 8-film post-theatrical licensing deal with Maddock Films and an August 29 premiere date for the new Original Hindi movie Songs of Paradise.
