The story follows a bounty hunter called Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal) and his adventures in the galaxy. But as we already said, the main attraction of the show is baby Yoda! If you want to coo over the cuteness of baby Yoda, tune into Mandalorian at Hotstar now!
Game of Thrones
We admit the last season of Game of Thrones was a downer for many, but that doesn't take away from the fact that this show was the most-watched in this generation. If you didn't get on the game of thrones hype train during its hype train, it's still not too late to catch up to it!
Game of Thrones is set in the fantasy world of Westeros. But unlike the vanilla and happy setting of many fantasy franchises like Lord of the rings, Game of Thrones is steeped in gritty and dark storytelling. To boil down the story in basics without giving away any spoilers, the story is about different characters of Game of Thrones vying for the throne of Westeros: the Iron throne. There are dragons, zombie armies, barbarian hordes, and an abundance of violence and explicit scenes. We will not say it's a family-friendly show, but it is definitely a must-watch series!
Modern family

If you want a good horror show to give you the scare of a lifetime, Lovecraft country needs to be on your watchlist.
WandaVision
Marvel was known for its cinematic but fairly generic superhero movies. But after producing some of the most unique superhero shows, we can say Marvel has shed this vanilla image successfully. Marvel's Wandavision especially stands out as the most experimental yet successful show Marvel has to offer.
If you are already familiar with the MCU, you must know Wanda as the Scarlet Witch and her boyfriend. As the show name suggests, the story is all about Wanda and Vision. The show pays homage to previous decades and tells how one handles grief in their own ways. Telling you anymore would be spoiling many things, so we'll instead just ask you to watch WandaVision know it for yourself!

If you are one of those people, Hotstar has the perfect show for you! With just five episodes, Five days is the perfect miniseries for you!
Five days is a British crime series that searches for the mysterious disappearance of a mother in a quaint British suburb.

Euphoria
Euphoria at first glance looks like your typical teenage chick flick. It has a pretty girl, an outcast girl, and a haughty jock. Looks simple, right? But Euphoria is anything but simple. It explores subjects that perhaps no young adult show has ever dared to explore.
Rue is a troubled seventeen-year-old girl struggling with her drug addiction. After she gets out of her rehab, she meets the manic pixie girl Jules. As her friendship with this new girl deepens, troubles with the local mean jock Nate are beginning to brew.

I may destroy you
Watching this show just might destroy you emotionally. Unlike the other shows of Hotstar, "I may destroy you" hits very close to home in its depiction of some very real-life problems. And that is exactly why you need to watch this show to not only better your worldview but to become more aware of things you might not know of yet.
I may destroy you is based on the real-life events of Michaela Coel, who also plays the lead role of Arabella. Things go wrong one night and the people she trusts betray her in the worst way possible. She wakes up the next day with a hangover but realizes she has been sexually assaulted while she was under the influence. "I may destroy" not only sends out a message to women on keeping their guard up in this untrustworthy world, but it also educates the viewers on consent. Definitely a show everyone must watch.
Watchmen
We realize that the DC universe has been neglected in this list. So it's time we give them some love too. And what do you know, Hotstar has something to offer to all the DC lovers as well!
Watchmen is just like most DC series is very grounded in reality with none of the over-the-top action scenes Marvel universe has (sorry Marvel fans!) It follows the story of a racial supremacy group and how the police force deals with them. You might be wondering how DC superheroes fit into this, right? Watch the show and find out!
We hope by now we have won you over to subscribe to Hotstar. Most people think Hotstar only has dramatic soap operas and cricket, but it actually has something for everyone. Whether you want to spend your evening alone, with a family, or with that special someone, Hotstar can be the perfect companion for all of them!

There are two kinds of people in the world. One who is a fan of Friends and another who is a fan of HIMYM. Personally, we prefer the latter (please don't kill us Friends fans! T-T). And if you are among those rare people who have still not watched 'How I met your mother', then 2021 is still not too late to pick a side in this sitcom war!
