We are proud to deepen our partnerships with India’s top creative talent while introducing new voices, all aimed at delivering the diversity and quality of storytelling that defines Netflix.
High-octane productions
Tentpole projects like Aryan Khan’s grand Bollywood-themed series, The Ba***ds of Bollywood (The Bads of Bollywood), and Siddharth Anand’s high-stakes drama, Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins, bring scale and excitement to our slate. Meanwhile, Akka, an exceptional YRF production, is a gripping tale of powerful sisterhood, driven by chaos, violence, and the fight for survival.
These productions seamlessly blend spectacle and substance, promising an unparalleled immersive experience.
Romantic comedies reimagined
India adores love stories, and in 2025, we are introducing fresh and vibrant tales that reflect the nuances of Indian romance. Aap Jaisa Koi, The Royals, and Nadaaniyan infuse timeless romantic themes with a contemporary twist, while Dhoom Dhaam brings comedy into the mix, offering a delightful escape.

We’re elevating our distinct offerings from South India with compelling stories, including Test, a Tamil cricket drama starring R. Madhavan, Nayanthara, Siddharth, and Super Subbu, our first Telugu comedy-drama series that explores purpose and love in unexpected places.
Expanding comedy offerings
Comedy remains a core focus in 2025, with fan favorites like The Great Indian Kapil Show returning for a third season, delivering three times the laughter and entertainment. Diversifying our offering of humor is a special, Vir Das Fool Volume headlined by the beloved International Emmy-winning star himself. To bring even more laughs, we present Toaster, an offbeat comedy with a sharp and unconventional take on modern life.
Revitalizing crime and action
Crime and action take center stage in these thrilling narratives, each offering a unique take on high-stakes storytelling. Mandala Murders weaves mystical undertones into a gripping mystery, while Dabba Cartel is an intense thriller that reimagines power and agency from a whole new perspective. Glory immerses us in a family’s fierce pursuit of an Olympic medal, where emotional tension and ambition drive the drama. Meanwhile, Saare Jahan Se Accha presents an intense 1970s spy thriller inspired by history that celebrates India’s unsung heroes.
