July 2025 promises to be a feast for fans of Hindi web content, with streaming platforms like JioHotstar, Sony LIV, Amazon Prime Video, and Netflix dishing out storytelling across genres—from high-stakes espionage and political intrigue to occult thrillers.
These releases showcase a mix of returning favourites and ambitious new ventures, reaffirming the viewers confidence in the digital format. With pulse-racing thrillers, razor-sharp docudramas, and mythological crime sagas, it's a month where quality meets variety. Here’s your detailed guide to Hindi series that will be lighting up screens this summer.
'Kaalidhar Laapata'
Abhishek Bachchan delivers one of his most emotionally layered performances as the titular character in Kaalidhar Laapata, a middle-aged man grappling with abandonment, memory loss, and life upended by a cruel family betrayal at the Maha Kumbh Mela.
Reacting to overhearing his siblings’ plan to abandon him, Kaalidhar disappears and stumbles into the path of Ballu (Daivik Baghela), an indomitable eight-year-old orphan surviving on the streets. Together they embark on an unexpected odyssey to tick off Kaalidhar’s bucket list, forging a heartwarming bond that reminds him life is measured not in years but in moments of connection, courage, and truth. Directed by Madhumita, this Hindi remake of her acclaimed Tamil drama KD also features Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub and Nimrat Kaur. The movie will be available on ZEE5 from July 4.
'The Hunt: The Rajiv Gandhi Assassination Case'
National Award-winning director Nagesh Kukunoor transforms one of India’s most seismic political tragedies into a gripping 90-day manhunt thriller. Based on Anirudhya Mitra’s investigative memoir Ninety Days, the series tracks D.R. Kaarthikeyan (Amit Sial) as he leads a Special Investigation Team through a maze of intelligence dead ends, bureaucratic roadblocks, and shifting political pressure following the 1991 suicide bombing in Sriperumbudur, Tamil Nadu, that claimed Rajiv Gandhi’s life. Anchored by a smart ensemble including Sahil Vaid, Bhagavathi Perumal, Danish Iqbal, and Vidyut Garg, the show blends forensic detail and procedural tension with poignant human drama.
You can watch it on SonyLIV from July 4.
‘Special Ops Season 2’
Kay Kay Menon reprises his iconic avatar as RAW agent Himmat Singh, leading a high-stakes cyberwarfare mission. Co-stars Karan Tacker, Vinay Pathak, Tahir Raj Bhasin, and company dive into a world of elite hacking cells, digital infiltration, and cross-border espionage.
The series will be available for streaming from July 11 on Jio Hotstar.
Mandala Murders
Led by Vaani Kapoor, Vaibhav Raj Gupta, Surveen Chawla, and Shriya Pilgaonkar, this supernatural-leaning crime thriller ventures into the fog-shrouded town of Charandaspur. Created by Gopi Puthran (Mardaani 2) and co-directed with Manan Rawat, the six-part series weaves ritualistic killings, vernacular mythology, and an ancient secret society into a gripping narrative.
Detectives Rea Thomas and Vikram Singh must decode cryptic mandalas, decode prophecies, and untangle fate from fiction to stop a killer operating beyond the bounds of reason—where faith and murder collide in chilling fashion. The movie will be having a grand debut on Netflix on July 25.
‘Aap Jaisa Koi’
If you love romantic comedies and unlikely love stories between two seemingly opposite people, don’t miss out on this one! Starring R. Madhavan and Fatima Sana Shaikh, this tender romantic comedy narrates the story of Shrirenu Tripathi, a middle-aged Sanskrit professor based in Jamshedpur, who develops a relationship with Madhu Bose, a French instructor. Their bond is tested by societal expectations and opposition from family members. The narrative explores themes related to compatibility, interpersonal equality, and differing worldviews in romantic relationships. The film will debut on Netflix on July 25.
‘Maharani Season 4’
Starring Huma Qureshi, ‘Maharani’ tells the story of Rani Bharti, a naïve homemaker who gradually transitions into a kingpin when her husband, Bihar’s former CM, names her as the successor. The much-anticipated fourth season would be streaming from July 25 on Sony LIV.
‘Sarzameen’
Mollywood star Prithviraj Sukumaran and Bollywood veteran Kajol Devgn come together for the first time in Sarzameen, a patriotic thriller set in the conflict-ridden region of Kashmir. The film marks the feature directorial debut of Kayoze Iran.
An official announcement teaser released today confirms that Sarzameen will skip its planned theatrical release and premiere directly on OTT. The film is set to release on July 25, 2025, exclusively on Jio Hotstar.
The story revolves around an Indian Army officer, played by Prithviraj, and his internal and external battles on and off the field. Kajol is expected to play a key emotional role, while Ibrahim Ali Khan surprises in a negative role as a terrorist, his second digital release this year after Naadiyaan.
Produced by Hiroo Yash Johar, Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, and Star Studios, the film’s story and screenplay are written by Soumil Shukla and Arun Singh. Wait for more announcements on this Hindi movie.
