First up, the content they offer in the US and other countries. This includes a massive library of Hollywood movies, TV shows from other studios and broadcasters.

Secondly, under the category “Indian movies and TV”, we see a lot of movies listed like Piku, Lootera, Heropanti, Youngistaaan and even some fairly old stuff such as Andaaz and Apna Apna, Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, but no TV shows currently running on the popular Hindi general entertainment channels. There are hardly any recent releases, and the entire library of India-centric content available is quite limited. We are bound to receive more in some time.

If you get an SMS for a charge of Rs. 70 or similar amount, don’t worry, that’s just an authorization check, and you haven’t actually been charged anything.
