New Bengali Drama “Bholebaba Paar Karega”

Plot and Cultural Impact

Four days ago JioHotstar added “Bholebaba Paar Karega,” a gritty series that follows a slum‑girl forced into an arranged marriage with a wealthy doctor. Her weapon? Rap verses that expose oppression across both the underworld and the elite. The show positions itself as a flagship drama for Bengali‑speaking audiences, expanding Hotstar’s regional‑content footprint.

Live Cricket Streaming for the ICC T20 World Cup

Subscription Options and Language Support

Hotstar will serve as a primary gateway for the ICC T20 World Cup, sharing live‑stream duties with Star Sports. Viewers can choose an ad‑free, multi‑language HD stream on JioHotstar or watch a free‑to‑air feed on Doordarshan for select matches. This dual‑option approach lets you enjoy cricket the way you prefer, without juggling multiple platforms.
