Tom McLean presents Bollywood’s hottest upcoming releases that you can stream.

Kaamyaab (Netflix)

Overlooked during its initial premiere due to the concurrent release of Baaghi 3 (2020) and the newly implemented COVID-19 restrictions, Kaamyaab is a criminally unsung gem that perfectly showcases the more eccentric elements of Indian cinema. A love letter to Bollywood’s ‘Golden Age’, Kaamyaab is a film that offers both laughs and subtle introspection, following veteran side actor Sudheer’s (Sanjay Mishra) journey out of retirement and his attempts at completing his record-breaking 500th film appearance that he hopes will be remembered forever.

Gulabo Sitabo (Prime)

Originally set for a theatrical release, Gulabo Sitabo is now making its worldwide debut on Amazon’s Prime Video. This riotous comedy sees legendary entertainer Amitabh Bachchan facing off against the hilarious Ayushmann Khurrana in a battle of wits and schemes. And as their game of one-upmanship comes to a head, it attracts others members to their respective gangs, each with agendas of their own. Overall, Gulabo Sitabo is the perfect flick for those in the mood for light-hearted mischief.

Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl (Netflix)

Originally set to release in April, Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl was pulled from its theatrical release schedule due to Covid-19 concerns, and will instead premiere on Netflix later this year. Starring Janhvi Kapoor, the action-packed film traces the exploits of the titular, real-life Indian Air Force pilot as she performs acts of heroism during the Kargil War, becoming the first female Indian pilot to fly in combat zones. Pankaj Tripathi and Angad Bedi star in supporting roles.

Release date: 15th August
