Mumbai, 18th August 2023: Jio today announced the launch of Jio prepaid plans with a bundled Netflix subscription.

Speaking on this occasion, Kiran Thomas, CEO, Jio Platforms Limited, commented, “We are committed to bringing world class services to our users.

Our partnership with global partners like Netflix has grown in strength and together we are creating use cases for rest of the world to follow”.

Over the years, we have launched a variety of successful local shows, documentaries and films which have been loved by audiences across India. Our collection of must watch stories is growing and our new prepaid bundle partnership with Jio will give more customers access to this exciting line-up of Indian content as well as some incredible stories from around the world.”
Netflix India has built a distinct and diverse slate of films and series across a variety of genres and innovative formats. Over recent years, Netflix has delivered several local hit series and films such as Delhi Crime, Rana Naidu, Class, Kohrra, Darlings, RRR, Gangubai Kathiawadi, Monica O My Darling, Shehzada, Lust Stories and many more. In addition to the incredible Indian titles, Netflix offers a huge choice of world class shows and films from around the world including global hits like Money Heist, Squid Game, Never Have I Ever, Stranger Things, Wednesday and many more.
