Cricket properties dominated Ormax Media’s new Ormax StreamView report, with the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 attracting approximately 246 million viewers on JioHotstar between January and June 2026, more than any other title tracked in the measurement framework.
The Indian Premier League 2026, also broadcast on JioHotstar, followed closely with 228.4 million viewers, ranking second overall. The second season of “India’s Got Latent” and “Dhurandhar” came in third and fourth respectively, ahead of a cricket series between India and New Zealand, which completed the top five with 30.5 million viewers. Ormax StreamView (OSV), which launched in January 2026, is designed to track long-form content across OTT originals, general entertainment channel (GEC) programming, theatrical films, non-fiction, sports and news, an expansion from the company’s previous focus on international and Hindi-language originals only.
Ormax Founder and CEO Shailesh Kapoor said the initiative was created to answer a larger question: “What is India watching on OTT?” [streaming]?” Ormax said the ambition reflected how audience behavior had changed as streaming consumption became “broader and more complex”, with viewers moving fluidly between formats, genres, languages and platforms.
Outside of cricket, the second season of “India’s Got Latent”, distributed through Samay Raina’s YouTube channel and Netflix, led all non-sports properties with a projected lifetime audience of 38.5 million across 10 episodes. The Ranveer Singh starrer “Dhurandhar” topped the Hindi cinema charts with 35.2 million viewers on Netflix and JioHotstar, and its sequel “Dhurandhar: The Revenge” is expected to reach 27.8 million.
In the web series category, “Made in India: A Titan Story” on Amazon MX Player led with 17.8 million viewers, ahead of “Chiraiya” on JioHotstar with 16.3 million. Among non-Hindi Indian films, Prabhas-starrer “The RajaSaab” topped the list with 17.5 million viewers on JioHotstar. In international content categories, Prime Video’s “Off Campus” led web series with 8 million viewers, while “Avatar: Fire and Ash” led international movies with 7.2 million.
Ormax said its audience estimates are drawn from weekly primary research among a sample of more than 3,000 respondents, combining online surveys with a dedicated audience panel, and are projected using universal figures from the company’s OTT Audience Report 2025. The figures represent unduplicated individual viewers who watched a title for at least 30 minutes and exclude foreign audiences as well as short-form video content such as reels and microdrama.
