Gangubai Kathiawadi, starring Alia Bhatt, is the most popular non-English film on Netflix worldwide
Since its release on February 25, 2022, Alia Bhatt’s film Gangubai Kathiawadi has been breaking box office records. Alia shared the film’s poster on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday, revealing that it has now become Netflix’s top non-English film worldwide. Shantanu Maheshwari, Vijay Raaz, and Ajay Devgn also star in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed film.
Gangubai Kathiawadi has surpassed all other non-English films on Netflix in less than a week. The film has been viewed for 13.81 million hours in 25 countries around the world, including Canada, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Arab Emirates.
On their Instagram Stories, Alia and her mother Soni Razdan announced Gangubai Kathiawadi’s new milestone. The story follows Gangu (Alia), who was sold into a brothel in Mumbai’s Kamathipura, and is based on S Hussain Zaidi’s book Mafia Queens of Mumbai.
“It’s amazing to see how great stories continue to find new audiences, within India and beyond, with Netflix,” Alia said of the film’s success on Netflix. I’m speechless in the face of all the love that Gangubai Kathiawadi has received from viewers all over the world. I’ve always wanted to work with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and I’m grateful that our film was able to find a home on Netflix and receive such a positive response.”
“Streaming services, particularly Netflix, break down geographical and linguistic barriers, allowing stories to reach new audiences on a daily basis.” It’s incredible to see Gangubai Kathiawadi trend at #1 in Non-English films on Netflix worldwide and in the Top 10 in 25 countries ranging from Australia to Canada to the United Kingdom.
Sanjay expressed his delight as well, saying, “Gangubai Kathiawadi is a special film that I hold very dear to my heart.” When it first came out in theatres, the audience adored it, and now that it’s available on Netflix, we’re thrilled to see how far the film has spread, reaching new audiences. Its Netflix success proves that Gangubai’s story of fighting for women’s rights is truly universal.”

Sonakshi takes saiyyan Zaheer to bhaiya Kapil Sharma’s show; Shatrughan Sinha joins them as ‘bhola bhala aadmi’
This weekend, Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal will grace Kapil Sharma’s show with Shatrughan Sinha and Poonam Sinha for a family special episode
Back in May this year, Sonakshi Sinha made an appearance on Kapil Sharma’s comedy show to promote her web series Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar. The actor was joined by her co-stars Manisha Koirala, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Sheikh and Sharmin Segal. During this episode, Kapil told Sonakshi that her fellow Bollywood divas Alia Bhatt and Kiara Advani are now married. Hearing this, Sonakshi claimed that Kapil is rubbing salt in her wounds because he knows how eager she is to get married. Sonkashi’s wish was granted a month later when she tied the knot with Zaheer Iqbal. Well, she is now returning to Kapil’s show, this time with her husband.
In the trailer of the upcoming episode, Sonakshi introduces Zaheer to Kapil in a hilarious way. She claims that anyone who wants to get married should come to Kapil’s show and call him ‘bhaiya’. Gesturing at Zaheer, Sonakshi then tells Kapil, “Bhaiya, meet my saiyyan.” Well, things get even more fun when Sonakshi’s superstar father Shatrughan Sinha joins them along with her mother Poonam Sinha. This is the first time the entire Sinha family and their new son-in-law have appeared together on national television. At the end of this trailer, Shatrughan describes himself as ‘bhola bhala, shareef aadmi’. But Poonam leaves everyone in splits when she replies, “Mujhse poocho.”
In another fun bit, Shatrughan reveals how Dharmendra once told him to always be ‘a one woman man, at a time’. Well, fans can’t keep calm and are now expressing their excitement in the comment section below. For instance, one social media user gushed, “So happy they’re gonna be on the show! ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” whereas another Sonakshi-Zaheer fan claimed, “This episode is a slap to people who were saying that Shatrughan was not happy with Sonakshi and Zaheer’s marriage.”
