Platforms checked: Netflix , Prime Video, JioHotstar, SonyLIV, ZEE5, Apple TV, plus ManoramaMAX, aha, Sun NXT and selected specialty OTT services.
This roundup covers titles that actually arrived during the completed August 7–13 window. Releases scheduled for Friday, August 14, including Cocktail 2 and Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, are intentionally left for next week’s roundup rather than being counted early. Current Indian release guides corroborate the major additions below.
Netflix
Recently Added
- The Last House — sci-fi thriller — August 7
- Alley Cats — animated comedy — August 7
- Mourinho — three-part sports documentary — August 11
- Nando Between Two Worlds – A Sintonia Film — Brazilian crime drama — August 12
- Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes — true-crime docuseries — August 12
- My Brilliant Career — period drama series — August 13
- This, That and Everything in Between — family drama — August 13
- Tires, Season 3 — workplace comedy — August 13
- A Child of My Own — true-crime documentary — August 13
Netflix has the week’s deepest slate. The Last House provides the big genre-film entry, while Mourinho looks beyond José Mourinho’s trophies and public persona through interviews with major figures from his football career. August 12–13 then brings a particularly heavy mix of crime, drama, comedy and documentary programming.
Prime Video
Recently Added
- Vadhandhi, Season 2 — Tamil crime thriller — August 7
- Reacher, Season 4 — action thriller — August 12
- The Traitors, Season 2 — Indian reality competition — August 13
Prime Video arguably owns the week’s biggest returning-series story. Reacher Season 4 puts Alan Ritchson’s former military investigator into another large-scale conspiracy, while The Traitors Season 2, hosted by Karan Johar, brings a fresh group of celebrity contestants into the Traitors-versus-Innocents format.
For Indian crime-drama viewers, Vadhandhi Season 2 is particularly notable: the Tamil series returns with SI Moosa Raaza investigating skeletal remains uncovered around Madurai’s Jallikattu festival.
JioHotstar
Recently Added
- The Super Mario Galaxy Movie — animated adventure — August 7
- MTV Hustle 5 — Hindi music/reality series — August 8
The major family-entertainment arrival is The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which made its India streaming debut on JioHotstar on August 7. The platform followed it with a distinctly Indian unscripted release, MTV Hustle 5, on August 8.
SonyLIV
Recently Added
- Kaun Banega Crorepati — new season — August 10
SonyLIV’s major entertainment addition during the window is the return of Kaun Banega Crorepati. The platform is also streaming the IndianOil Durand Cup 2026, but live sporting events are not counted in this movie-and-show roundup.
Apple TV
Recently added
- Women in Blue, Season 2 — Spanish-language crime drama — August 12
The acclaimed series returns to Mexico’s pioneering all-female police unit, with a new investigation connected to the country’s 1968 student massacre. Indian publications consistently list the new season’s August 12 Apple TV premiere.
ZEE5
I found no sufficiently well-supported new ZEE5 movie or series premiere within August 7–13 that I am comfortable presenting as confirmed India availability.
The platform’s next major release is Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata, scheduled for August 14. Because that falls outside this week’s completed review window, it belongs in the next roundup.
Regional & Specialty OTT
ManoramaMAX
- Kattalan — Malayalam action drama — August 13
Antony Varghese stars in this 1995-set story revolving around rival ivory-smuggling networks in the Aanakolli forest. Its August 13 ManoramaMAX streaming date is confirmed in current South Indian OTT coverage.
aha
- Chef Mantra Project USA — Telugu cooking/entertainment show — August 13
The new edition relocates the cooking format to the United States and features U.S.-based contestants, but it is being released through aha for its Telugu audience.
For Sun NXT and hoichoi, I could not verify a significant new movie or show premiere during this precise August 7–13 window strongly enough to include one. I have therefore left them blank rather than filling the roundup with uncertain catalogue additions.
OTTShows Editor’s Picks
Biggest returning international series: Reacher Season 4 — Prime Video
Indian reality pick: The Traitors Season 2 — Prime Video

Weekly Takeaway
This week belongs largely to returning franchises and established formats. Prime Video is especially strong, pairing the international pull of Reacher with the Indian return of The Traitors and the Tamil crime drama Vadhandhi. Netflix counters with sheer volume, spanning thrillers, documentaries, comedy and international drama.
There is also a useful shift happening outside the biggest platforms. ManoramaMAX and aha continue to demonstrate why an India OTT roundup increasingly needs to look beyond the five or six global services: regional platforms are becoming an important part of the weekly discovery story.
