June is the start of Bollywood's summer streaming rush. April and May theatrical releases start hitting OTT platforms. Prime Video India and Netflix India are competing directly for the biggest acquisitions. The OTT window for mainstream Hindi releases is now 6-8 weeks — which means everything from April is landing on streaming this month.
OTT Windows: April Theatrical Releases Arriving Now
Bhooth Bangla (Akshay Kumar, Priyadarshan's horror-comedy) opened in April and its OTT window puts it on a major platform in June. Battle of Galwan (Salman Khan) followed April 17 — expect it on Prime Video or Netflix by late June. This is exactly where subscribers win: one month of patience and you skip the multiplex entirely. Watch which platform lands the rights.
