Why is there so much Indian content on Netflix now?

Capitalism. Next question.

with indian Bollywood fims, korean, chinese and northern germanic films.
whats going on? I pay good money to see film, I think they should cater
to north americans. Oh and if they cant do any thing about that then
add more films faster rather then making me wait for NEXT WEEK.
I really dont want to go to another provider because I like netflix
its easy to set up and pay as you go. But if they keep dooing this I
might have to.

We got it, you are offended to even see foreign langUge content on Netflix.

Have you really run out of all th "North American" shows and movies?

Don't you understand modern search algorithms? They will show you more of what you looked up, started watching, or watched completely.

This is very important for you to understand, particularly regarding social media. Just so you won't post here again, saying "I can't believe all the kids are doing (insert stupid) because of Tik Tok". No, most of them aren't doing it, because their feed shows something else. Or "OMG, (insert political opponent) is dead in the water because (insert event)", when said event has been seen only by your group, because no one else cares.

Also, K-drama is great

You're a racist, uncultured, moron.

Try broadening your horizons instead of trying to start a fight on DCUM.

I’d like more Spanish-language content yet can’t seem to find anything good on Netflix.

Changing the topic a bit, I'd love recommendations for Indian dramas - something more modern.

Writers / actors strike so went elsewhere for content.

Plus, Netflix is global, not just US.

It is due to the large population in India.

I like Turkish and Korean dramas over us shows.

I just watched till death on Netflix with subtitles and it was excellent. Grade a drama. It’s Arabic though but has English subtitles

US shows*

There are billions of Hindi/Urdu speakers who consume this content. Even in US, there is a good number of people from several South Asian countries.

Many middle eastern shows/movies too. Netflix is available globally (wherever there is internet access).

They’re hoping for another squid game by elevating international shows that do well in their original regions.

If they can convince you to enjoy what nearly a billion Indians enjoy for 1/3 purchase cost they are in serious money.

But aren't the story lines all the same in those B-wood movies. How many movies is SRK in a love triangle? And aren't all of them basically musicals?
