Binged reported a few weeks back how a film streaming on Netflix was silently promoted by Disney+Hostar. Looks like the effort didn’t go in vain as a film streaming on Netflix is pumping views on a years-old film streaming on Disney+Hotstar.
During the release date of She Season 2, the second season automatically started generating views on the first season. What is happening these days with a film whose original first part is on Disney+Hotstar while the recently released second instalment is on Netflix.
Yes, we are talking about the Bhool Bhulaiya series. The first part starred Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Shiney Ahuja, Amisha Patel, Rajpal Yadav, Paresh Rawal and Manoj Joshi in important roles.
However, the second part stars Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani, Tabu, Rajpal Yadav, and Sanjay Mishra in titular roles. Although the second part is nowhere close to the original, independently it is a pretty decent film.
Top 10 movies are something which is a Netflix thing but Disney+Hotstar has copied it. Regardless, it gives us important insights nonetheless.
As you can see, Bhool Bhulaiya is in the third position. Thankfully, the Akshay Kumar starrer is streaming for free so it has much greater access.
This way knowingly or unknowingly Netflix is kind of helping Disney+Hotstar.
