Dhurandhar in Netflix vs jiohotstar

As expected , jiohotstar is giving absolute shit quality while streaming Dhurandhar (Raw and Dekha)....tried watching the same version on Netflix and the difference is huge.....

Why is a 1080p video streaming at 1.9 mbps bitrate with beamr compression ? For a proper 1080p video a bare minimum of 3-4 mbps is required

Jiohotstar is an absolutely pathetic app man....shame on these mf for ruining such a great movie.

Also netflix offers spatial audio while jiohotstar provides bad quality and Fevicol ad right under the title name even though I'm on a premium ad free subscription. Don't keep your expectations high for the DHURANDHAR : THE REVENGE as i don't think that's video quality will be good.

HOTD ka hindi dub is actually pretty good

Was rewatching House of the Dragon before season 3 and randomly switched the audio to Hindi for a bit. Expected it to sound awkward because fantasy shows usually get very over-the-top in dub versions, but this was surprisingly normal.

The dialogues still feel serious, the politics are easy to follow, and none of the characters sound unintentionally funny. That was my biggest fear honestly 😭

I think what worked for me is that they didn’t try too hard to Bollywood-ify the lines. The whole world still feels like HOTD, just more accessible if you’re more comfortable watching in Hindi like my parents

Even my parents ended up sitting through an episode because they could properly follow what was happening for once.

Dhurandhar is also coming to JioHotstar tomorrow

the audacity to call it *Raw & Undekha* despite being the same as the netflix version 🤡🤡

Why are all the popular shows being removed ?

In the last few days they have removed

Mahabharat ( all non-hindi except odia )

Kkk

Jhalak

Roadies

Nach baliye

Swaragini

Bepanaah

Beintehaan

Madhubala

Shakti

I mean why did that stupid jio cinema have to merge with hotstar and ruin our beautiful app, the colors shows are being removed and few beautiful star plus are being pulled along 🤦🏻‍♀️

And the worse is they just pull off and randomly one day put it back and pull off again 🤦🏻‍♀️

It's like anything jio lands their hands on is ruined 🤦🏻‍♀️

Jio hotstar subscription

I feel that I got scammed because of this clause because of their marketing gimmick that I need to recharge within 48 hours of expiry of my plan, i have 2 jio sim which i switched every recharge and now that I recharged one of my number ,jio hotstar subscription doesn't reflect into my account and their customer support told me this that I need to subscribe jio hotstar with 79rs plan , they already made jio hotstar subscription for mobile only and exclude hollywood movies from their plan and now this feels like a scam because I didn't even know that since when this clause added here

Paid 349rs(jio) still not hotstar

Called customer support , they said it was for one time only, I was using hotstar for years with same plan, wasted my money , can't even get refund, this is sad

Roadies (completely removed), Splitsvilla, Bigboss old seasons are gone

Does anyone has any idea why all the previous seasons of above mentioned shows are not on the app and they removed roadies completely, we have paid full fees, now they are removing content without notice. How is this remotely fair?

Where can I watch them?

Why do Hotstar episode links from Google keep redirecting me to the homepage? Usually this doesn`t happen.

Whenever I click a specific episode link for Hotstar from Google search results, it just redirects me to the Hotstar homepage instead of opening the episode. I’ve tried multiple links and it keeps happening. Is this a region issue, broken links, app/browser problem, or something else? Anyone know a fix?

Now opening jiohotstar takes me directly to this nonsense Tadka. Is there a way to disable Tadka for an account

I know Jiohotstar is trying their best to promote this nonsense called Tadka. But i am not the right audience for it. Is there a way for me to ensure that my home page is not cluttered with this nonsense. Something i can do to exclude this content via app setting or some other way so that their algorithm doesn't recommend this to me

Rebrand Makes Trash..

- Poor recommendation system
- I’m not interested in cricket, Sparks, or Tadka content, yet the platform constantly recommends irrelevant content
- Too much focus on cricket content, which I personally don’t enjoy
- Overloaded with ads
- I don’t see much value in paying for Premium just to remove ads, especially since I mainly use Desktop, iPad, and Mobile — devices where 4K support isn’t even fully useful for me
- JioHotstar’s streaming bitrate feels noticeably lower compared to HBO Max & Disney+

“They have quantity, but not quality.”

Please stop the Tadka BS

I only use hotstar to watch cricket. That's the sole reason i have the subscription. If cricket won't be there I would never subscribe. But recently while watching IPL I'm just so frustrated watching repeated ads of this SLOP.

And they have the audacity to have the tag line "No bakwas" bruh ....I would rather watch skibidi toilet and italian brainrot than watch this cringefest.

Just please focus on why people have your subscription cricket and disney/marvel shows.
