The Netflix film Accused has become one of the most watched movies on the platform worldwide. In its second week, the film was the most watched non-English movie on Netflix globally. When English titles are also included, it ranked at number two. This means it was the second most watched film on Netflix across all languages and territories during the week.
This is a major achievement for an Indian streaming film. It shows that the movie reached audiences far beyond India. Millions of viewers across different countries watched the film within a short time. Such performance usually indicates that a film has strong global curiosity and visibility on the platform.
The film stars Konkona Sen Sharma and Pratibha Ranta. It tells the story of a respected doctor whose life begins to fall apart after serious accusations are made against her.
Interestingly, the strong viewership comes even though the film has received mixed reviews from critics. Many reviewers praised the performances but felt the film itself could have been better written. Despite this, audiences around the world still chose to watch it.
For Netflix, this kind of performance is very important. It shows that Indian stories can travel to global audiences on the platform. Success like this may encourage Netflix to invest more in similar films that speak to viewers in different countries while still coming from India.
