The 5 Most-Viewed Streaming Shows And Movies Of The Week

At a time when it feels more challenging than ever before to keep track of every release within the ever-growing Indian streaming space, the bigger challenge still is finding out which releases are attracting the largest audiences. Streaming platforms are notorious for their lack of transparency, allowing them to quote numbers that are tough to verify. Enter media consulting firm Ormax Media which has began tracking viewership figures of the top releases across major platforms.

From brand new releases to older ones that are still going strong, here's a list of the most-viewed shows and movies from the Indian streaming space during the week of November 2nd, 2020 – November 8th, 2020.
