Netflix India/Balaji Motion Pictures/NTR Arts
Three Indian movies – two Hindi and one Telugu – have made it to the list of most-watched non-English films worldwide on the streaming platform Netflix. While Do Patti had a direct-to-digital release on October, Devara Part One and The Buckingham Murders released in theatres last month. For the week ending November 10, Do Patti ranked on the fourth slot on the list while The Buckingham Murders and Devara made it to the fifth and sixth ranks respectively.
The Swedish Netflix original film Let Go topped the list for the week ending November 10. The film is directed by Josephine Bornebusch who also features in the movie. Family Pack and Pedro Páramo made it to the second and third ranks on the Netflix list.
This is the third week on the global list for Do Patti while Devara Part One and The Buckingham Murders made their debut on the list just days after they landed on the platform.
The Buckingham Murders
Directed by Hansal Mehta, The Buckingham Murders features Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead role of a cop who is grieving the tragic loss of her son. Written by Aseem Arora, along with Raghav Raj Kakker and Kashyap Kapoor, the film was produced by Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Motion Pictures. It registered nearly three million views and more than five million watch-hours on Netflix.
The film is essentially a thriller told with a sensitive heart. Mehta’s film maintains a tight pace and also manages to keep audiences on the edge. It also highlights some important and sensitive socio-political issues in the process. From highlighting the problems that immigrants often face, to gender skewed power politics, emotional turmoil of grieving parents and domestic violence, The Buckingham Murders talks about the subjects sensitively. The film had its world premiere last year at the BFI London Film Festival where it was widely praised for the brilliant performances and heart-wrenching story.
Devara Part One
Featuring NT Rama Rao in the lead role, Devara Part One is directed by Koratala Siva and also stars Janhvi Kapoor, and Prakash Raj in important parts. Produced by NTR Arts and Yuvasudha Arts, the film also features Saif Ali Khan, Srikanth, Shine Tom Chacko and Zarina Wahab.
While Devara Part One harps majorly on Jr NTR’s image, it does little to establish an emotional connect with the characters. The fabric of emotions within the narrative is very thin and appears more torn than not. The film registered more than 6 million hours (watched) and a little more than 2 million views on Netflix.
Do Patti
Shashanka Chaturvedi’s directorial thriller Do Patti made it to the Netflix’s global list of most-watched non-English films weeks after its release. The film which features Kriti Sanon and Kajol in a double role registered more than seven million watch hours and views, making it to as fourth-most-watched film in non-English category on Netflix worldwide.
Do Patti was also ranked on the fourth slot on the list with five million views when it released last month. Written by Kanika Dhillon, the film features Shaheer Sheikh opposite Sanon; along with Tanvi Azmi, Brijendra Kala in important roles. The film opened to wide appreciation for highlighting the cause and effects of domestic abuse in a sensitive fashion through a thriller.
