Streaming platforms are notorious for their lack of transparency, allowing them to quote numbers that are tough to verify. Ormax Media, a media consulting firm, has began tracking viewership figures of the top releases across major platforms.

Here's a list of the most-viewed Hindi shows and movies from the Indian streaming space during the week of November 23rd, 2020 – November 29th, 2020. The numbers are all estimates based only within India.

1) Aashram Chapter 2: The Dark Side – MX Player

Views (Million): 5.3

The second chapter of the Bobby Deol-starrer, directed by Prakash Jha topping this list (again) is no surprise, because the first chapter that dropped in August this year has been consistently showing up on this list, and now so has the second chapter. Deol plays the conman-godman, a sinister figure in this 9 part series that also stars Chandan Roy Sanyal and Anupriya Goenka among others. It must be noted that MX Player is a free-of-cost streaming platform.
