What is so cool about Indian Netflix?

I have checked out the content on lots of different Netflix regions, but Indian Netflix is for sure one of the coolest regions. This is a country with lots of content available on Netflix, and it is well-equipped and will keep you entertained for lots of days.

First of all, take a look at the list of genres as you visit Netflix in India.

There are lots of cool categories available on Indian Netflix

Can you see all the cool categories available in the picture above? This isn’t like most other countries in which you are served all the standard categories, and then “Indian” in addition. No, here you can choose from Hindi content, Marathi content, Malayalam content, Tamil content, Bengali content, Punjabi content, English content, Hollywood content, Bollywood content, Disney content, Sports content and so much more.

Now, these categories will for sure tell us all that there are a lot of movies and TV shows available on Netflix in India that you cannot find elsewhere. Can you imagine the category Bollywood on Netflix in the USA? Probably not! It is possible to find the category, even in the United States, you just need to know the Netflix code for the category, or simply press this direct link to get to it. But still, there is a lot of great local content on Netflix in India that you cannot find elsewhere.

But, if you look at the Disney category, you will also discover that there are lots of amazing animated movies worth streaming on Indian Netflix, just as well as popular and hot movies straight from the production studio in Hollywood.

What language does the content on Indian Netflix have?

If you try to watch Indian Netflix, what languages and subtitles will you meet? Will you be able to watch the content in a local language, or will you be forced to watch everything in English? And if you watch an animated Disney movie, will it only be in English, or will it only be available in local languages?

Here you can see a screenshot I made as I tried to watch the Disney movie Moana on Netflix in India.

As you can see from the image above, you have access to English subtitles (only), but you can watch the movie with audio in either English, Hindi, or in Tamil. That is actually quite cool!

If you try to watch an adult movie like Doctor Strange (a superhero movie from Disney starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange), you can watch it with subtitles available in English, while audio yet again is available in English, Tamil, and in Hindi.

These are just examples, and there are for sure lots of movies and TV shows working in other ways. But, at least this should give you a feeling of what audio languages and subtitle languages can be found for typical Hollywood content on Netflix in India.

India and VPN regulations.

In 2022, India decided to put heavy regulations on VPN services. As a result, most VPN providers decided to stop their servers in India (including Surfshark and ExpressVPN). As a result, they do not have actual VPN servers running in India anymore. But, they do have so-called virtual servers, meaning that they are still able to provide you with an Indian IP address, without putting your anonymity and security at stake.

As a result, you can still use these VPN providers to watch Indian Netflix abroad, even though they have closed down all their VPN servers within the borders of India.
