  • July 29 – *The Devil Wears Prada 2* (platform not specified)

Platform Participation

The releases involve three primary platforms: Jio+Hotstar (hosting *Pritam and Pedro*), Netflix (hosting eight titles), and a platform not specified in the source for *The East Palace* and *The Devil Wears Prada 2*. Production partners include Rajkumar Hirani’s team, Siddharth P Malhotra, Legendary Pictures, See-Saw Films, Imaginus, Weed Road Pictures, and Wendy Finerman Productions.

Data Snapshot

The July slate totals ten titles: four series, five films, and one sequel. Genres span comedy-drama, fantasy, mystery and sci-fi. Languages include Hindi, Telugu, Korean and English. Netflix supplies eight titles, accounting for 80 % of the releases.

Why It Matters

Concentrating ten high-profile titles in a single month intensifies competition for subscriber attention during the summer peak. Multilingual offerings aim to attract regional audiences in India and South Korea, while established franchises such as *Star Trek* and *The Devil Wears Prada* leverage brand recognition for global reach. The clustered schedule also tests platform marketing capacity and streaming bandwidth.
