Prime Video Unveils Its Biggest-Ever India Originals Slate: 55 Titles Including Panchayat Season 5, Mirzapur: The Movie, Farzi Season 2 & More
Prime Video has unveiled its most ambitious India Originals slate to date, announcing nearly 55 titles — including series, films, returning seasons, and theatrical releases — at the Prime Video Presents 2026 showcase held recently.
The streamer is doubling down on franchise-building, regional diversity, and a bold push into theatrical cinema through Amazon MGM Studios, aiming to deliver culturally rooted stories with global appeal. Executives emphasized India’s role as a key growth market, where nearly two-thirds of users enjoy content in multiple languages, and Indian originals drive significant international viewership.
Highlighting fan-favorite returns, the slate includes eagerly awaited new seasons of blockbuster franchises:
- Panchayat Season 5, continuing the beloved rural comedy-drama starring Jitendra Kumar, Neena Gupta, and Raghubir Yadav.
- Farzi Season 2, with Shahid Kapoor reprising his role in the gripping con-artist thriller.
- Dahaad Season 2, featuring Sonakshi Sinha in the crime investigation series.
- Other returning hits like Call Me Bae Season 2 (Ananya Panday), Dupahiya Season 2, The Traitors Season 2 (hosted by Karan Johar), and more.
A major cinematic expansion comes with Mirzapur: The Movie, bringing the gritty crime saga from series to the big screen. The film reunites stars Ali Fazal, Pankaj Tripathi, and the ensemble cast, promising an intense theatrical experience before streaming on Prime Video.
New original projects add fresh excitement, including:
- The Revolutionaries — a large-scale drama directed by Nikkhil Advani, starring Bhuvan Bam, Rohit Saraf, Pratibha Ranta, and Gurfateh Pirzada.
- Matka King — featuring Vijay Varma.
- Raakh — with Ali Fazal and Sonali Bendre.
- Lukkhe — marking rapper KING’s acting debut.
- Vansh – The Kalyug Warriors — touted as India’s first homegrown Hindi superhero series for streaming.
- Additional titles like Welcome to Khoya Mahal, Teen Kauwe (Bobby Deol), and others.
Star-backed productions shine through new partnerships: Hrithik Roshan’s HRX Films presents the series Storm and film Mess, while Alia Bhatt’s Eternal Sunshine Productions backs Don’t Be Shy.
Theatrical push via Amazon MGM Studios includes five upcoming films set for cinema release (followed by Prime Video streaming): Raftaar (Rajkummar Rao and Keerthy Suresh), VIBE (directed by Kunal Kemmu, featuring Preity Zinta), Dilkashi (music by A.R. Rahman), Nayyi Navelli (Yami Gautam), and Kuku Ki Kundli (Bhuvan Bam and Wamiqa Gabbi).
Regional storytelling gets a boost with Tamil and Telugu content, such as the Telugu adaptation of The Traitors (hosted by Teja Sajja), Exam (Tamil), returning seasons of Vadhandhi and Inspector Rishi, and more.
The announcements reflect Prime Video’s strategy to strengthen franchises, expand accessibility through tiered pricing and multilingual offerings, and position Indian content as a global powerhouse.
