I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with yesterday’s timely addition of 2007’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa (which I enjoyed). It joins Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 for streaming, in case you want to catch up on the franchise before heading to the theater for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 this weekend.

If those films have you in a spooky mood, I wrote about all the Indian Original horror movies and series on Netflix for What’s on Netflix (with a bonus list of all the licensed Indian horror films currently streaming).

And if that still isn’t enough scary content for you, I appeared on the “Bollywood Horror Top 13” episode of the Bollywood Drafts podcast. Josh Hurtado, Erin Fraser, Matt Bowes, and I had a spirited discussion about the best Hindi horror flicks, but ultimately I got to choose the movie that ranked #1.

Back over at What’s on Netflix, I also posted a mega roundup of all the new Indian content added to Netflix in September and October.

There are a number of Indian films expiring from Netflix in November:

I also updated my list of Bollywood movies on Amazon Prime with yesterday’s addition of the Tamil film Black.

Finally, I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Hulu with the addition of the Tamil film Lubber Pandhu (also available dubbed in Hindi and Malayalam).

Things will be busy on the streamers next week, with the following debuts scheduled:

November 6: Citadel: Honey Bunny, Season 1 on Prime (at 1:30 pm ET)
November 7: The Buckingham Murders on Netflix
November 8: ARM (Malayalam) on Hulu; Vettaiyan (Tamil) on Prime; Vijay 69 on Netflix

Happy Diwali! — Kathy

I updated my list of Bollywood movies on Netflix with five new additions to the catalog. All of the newly added fiction films are from 2015: Umrika (Hindi), Saadey CM Saab (Punjabi), and Kothanodi (Assamese). The British documentaries Dowry Law and Linsday Lohan’s Indian Journey are also now available for streaming. For everything else new on Netflix, check Instant Watcher.

The wonderful documentary The World Before Her expires from Netflix on October 8. Catch it while you can, because it’s terrific.
