1. Matargashti
Dhara is a young woman ready to make her own choices about love, relationships and growing up, but her plans leave her protective father deeply uncomfortable.

Rajesh Kumar and Adrija Sinha lead this lighthearted comedy-drama about generational differences, family expectations and a father learning that his daughter is no longer a child.

4. Vishwanath & Sons
Sanjay Vishwanath has built a successful and carefully controlled life, but family responsibilities and an unexpected relationship begin changing the future he had planned for himself.

5. Roadies Rebirth
The adventure reality franchise returns with a fresh battle between experienced Roadies leaders and a new generation ready to challenge them. Prince Narula, Neha Dhupia and Nikhil Chinapa represent the established side, while Abhishek Malhan, Bani J and Baseer Ali bring fresh competition into the game. With Rannvijay Singha back as host, demanding tasks, rivalries, strategy and survival once again decide who can last the journey.

Journalist Sandhya and veteran cameraman Vinod begin investigating an illegal sand-mining operation that could give them an important story.

Parineeti Chopra and Deven Bhojani lead the thriller alongside Shekhar Suman, Adil Hussain and Amol Palekar.
7. Madam Inspector
Sub-Inspector Chitra Basu begins noticing a frightening pattern when women preparing to remarry start dying in circumstances that appear to be suicides.

Sandipta Sen leads this tense police thriller where Chitra must keep pushing for answers even when the investigation creates serious problems for her own career.
8. Least Eligible Bachelor
Teja is a simple village man tired of family pressure and repeated marriage rejections, so he moves to Hyderabad hoping to find both work and a suitable partner. His new IT job puts him under independent and ambitious boss Madhu, only for him to discover that she is also the woman chosen as his arranged-marriage match. Their completely different personalities lead them into an unusual trial live-in arrangement that turns the search for marriage into a funny and complicated relationship experiment.
9. Shaque: Trust No One
Nine years after her newborn daughter was abducted from a hospital, a mother has still not stopped searching for answers. Her hope suddenly returns when photographs appear to show the missing girl, reopening questions she had never been able to put behind her. As the investigation begins again, she is forced to wonder whether someone much closer to her knows more about the disappearance than they have admitted.
10. Chumbak
Five families living close together in a traditional Mumbai row-house find that their private problems rarely remain private for very long. Parenting, marriage, ageing, friendships and everyday misunderstandings bring plenty of laughter and emotional moments into their shared lives. Over time, the neighbours become something much bigger than people living next door, forming their own warm and imperfect surrogate family.
Whether you want an easy comedy, an emotional family story, a tense mystery or reality-show drama, Netflix’s trending list this week has something for almost every mood.
