1. Maamla Legal Hai Season 2 — Netflix, April 3
Cast: Ravi Kishan, Nidhi Bisht, Naila Grewal, Anant Joshi, Anjum Batra
Genre: Courtroom Comedy | Language: Hindi | Episodes: 10
District Court Patparganj is back in session. Season 1 of Maamla Legal Hai became one of Netflix India's breakout hits — trending #3 nationally and averaging 8.2/10 on IMDb. V.D. Tyagi (Ravi Kishan) returns with the same quirky bench: cases involving a ghost marriage dispute, an AI-written will, and a viral meme ownership claim. The same writers' room and the complete original cast are back. If Season 1 worked for you, Season 2 is a safe bet for the family weekend.
Best for: Family viewing, Hindi comedy fans, anyone who missed Season 1 (it's on Netflix — catch up before April 3).
2. The Boys Season 5 — Prime Video, April 8
Cast: Antony Starr, Jack Quaid, Karl Urban, Erin Moriarty, Laz Alonso, Jessie T. Usher
Genre: Superhero Satire, Dark Comedy | Language: English
This is the one everyone has been waiting for. The Boys has run for five seasons without losing its bite — 8.6/10 on IMDb from 450,000+ ratings, multiple Emmy nominations, and a cultural footprint that put phrases like "Compound V" into everyday vocabulary. Season 5 is confirmed as the series finale. Showrunner Eric Kripke has said the ending honours the original comic while going further than readers expect. Homelander is at his most dangerous. Butcher is facing the consequences of every choice he's made. The showdown lands April 8.
Don't start here. Watch Seasons 1–4 first — the payoff in Season 5 depends on it. All four seasons are on Prime Video.
3. BEEF Season 2 — Netflix, April 16
Cast: Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, Cailee Spaeny, Yuh-jung Youn
Genre: Psychological Drama, Anthology | Language: English | Episodes: 10
BEEF is an anthology — Season 2 shares nothing with Season 1 except its DNA: a single petty conflict that spirals into something devastating. Season 1 (Steven Yeun, Ali Wong) won 5 Emmys including Outstanding Limited Series and averaged 8.7/10 on IMDb. Season 2 moves to a country club. A young couple witnesses their employer and his wife having a violent argument. What they see, and what they do with that knowledge, sets off a chain of events with permanent consequences. Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan are two of the finest actors working today — this is their first project together. No official Season 2 poster has been released yet; official artwork drops closer to April 16.
Clean entry point: You do not need to watch Season 1. Both are self-contained stories.
4. Full Swing Season 4 — Netflix, April 16
Genre: Sports Documentary | Coverage: PGA Tour 2026 | Language: English
Netflix's golf docu-series returns for a fourth season, following the 2026 PGA Tour with the same mic'd-up, behind-the-ropes access that made Season 3 chart in 42 countries. Full Swing works for the same reason Drive to Survive works: the format makes elite sport feel personal. You don't need to follow golf. The tension comes from money, pressure, and ego — all of which translate.
Best for: Sports documentary fans, Drive to Survive viewers, anyone curious about professional golf.
5. Sitaare Zameen Par — SonyLIV, April 3
Cast: Aamir Khan, Genelia D'Souza
Genre: Drama | Language: Hindi
Aamir Khan's first major project since Laal Singh Chaddha. Sitaare Zameen Par is a spiritual companion to Taare Zameen Par — this time following adults with Down syndrome forming a basketball team, coached by a character played by Aamir Khan. Genelia D'Souza co-stars. The trailer reached 40 million views in its first week. Choosing a direct OTT release over cinema signals confidence in the content over spectacle. Comes to SonyLIV on April 3.
Best for: Fans of Taare Zameen Par, feel-good sports dramas, Aamir Khan's recent work.
6. Maa Ka Sum — Prime Video, April 3
Genre: Family Drama | Language: Hindi
A Prime Video India original exploring the relationship between a mother and her two adult children — one who stayed close to home and one who left. The show examines inheritance, expectation, and the quiet ways families accumulate emotional debt across decades. Prime Video India originals like Panchayat (8.8/10 IMDb) and Mirzapur have shown the platform understands grounded Hindi storytelling. No official poster has been released ahead of the April 3 premiere.
Best for: Family drama fans, viewers who prefer emotional realism over melodrama.
