<p>Squid Game remains Netflix's most-watched series, with its second season amassing an incredible 4.92 billion minutes of viewing time in a single week following its release on December 26, 2024.</p>
<p>The final season picks up where the second season left off. Netflix confirmed that the new episodes will follow Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae) as he pursues his mission to end the deadly game.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Meanwhile, The Front Man (played by Lee Byung-hun) prepares for his next move, and the remaining players face even more lethal consequences in each round.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The artwork teases a more brutal finale, featuring sinister silhouettes of Young-hee and her companion Cheol-su, characters first introduced in the post-credit scene of season two.</p>
<p>Hwang Dong-hyuk, the series creator, returns as both the writer and director for the final season. While the show was originally planned as a three-season story, Hwang hasn&rsquo;t ruled out the possibility of a spinoff.&nbsp;</p>

With ‘Heeramandi’, ‘Chamkila', India becomes third country in revenue per cent growth for Netflix in Q2

<h2>In Q2, India was the second and third country in terms of paid net adds and revenue per cent growth, per the streamer.&nbsp;</h2>

<p>Propelled by the popularity of titles such as &ldquo;Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar&rdquo;, &ldquo;The Great Indian Kapil Show&rdquo; and &ldquo;Amar Singh Chamkila&rdquo;, India has emerged as the third country in revenue per cent growth for streaming service Netflix in its second quarter.</p>
<p>The streamer released its second-quarter earnings for 2024 on Thursday evening and Indian content seems to have made significant strides this year alongside popular international shows such as &ldquo;Bridgerton 3&rdquo;, &ldquo;Baby Reindeer&rdquo;, Korean drama &ldquo;Queen of Tears&rdquo; and films such as &ldquo;Hit Man&rdquo; and &ldquo;Under Paris&rdquo;.</p>
<p>India and the UK have had especially strong slates this year, according to the streamer.</p>
<p>In Q2, India was the second and third country in terms of paid net adds and revenue per cent growth, respectively due to the success of titles like Sanjay Leela Bhansali&rsquo;s &ldquo;Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar&rdquo;, which had 15 million views to become the streamer&rsquo;s biggest Indian drama series ever.</p>
<p>Imtiaz Ali-directed biopic &ldquo;Amar Singh Chamkila&rdquo; with 8.3 million views was another major title for Netflix, which also registered success with licensed films such as Kiran Rao&rsquo;s &ldquo;Laapataa Ladies&rdquo; and Ajay Devgn-starrer horror drama &ldquo;Shaitaan&rdquo;.</p>
<p>From the UK, &ldquo;Baby Reindeer&rdquo;, which has earned 11 Emmy nominations, emerged as the big hit with 88.4 million views. &ldquo;The Gentlemen&rdquo;, &ldquo;One Day&rdquo; and &ldquo;Fool Me Once&rdquo; also spent multiple weeks on the streamer&rsquo;s global TV top 10 list.</p>
<p>During the company's earnings call with investors, Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos said "India's growth is a story that we see around the world playing out very similarly".</p>
<p>"So you look at the content, the product market fit is what drives our ability to attract members and retain members and monetise with them as well. I feel like what's going on in the quarter has been this ongoing build," he added.</p>
<p>Sarandos praised Bhansali for making "Heeramandi", a period drama series which featured Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sanjeeda Sheikh and Sharmin Segal.</p>
<p>"SLB is one of the most celebrated filmmakers in India, and he took on this incredibly ambitious series and brought it to screen on Netflix, directed every episode, and it's our biggest drama series to date in India," Sarandos said.</p>
<p>He further said the company's original films as well as the licensed content continue to thrill its subscribers.</p>
<p>"So we pick them well, we program well. We improve the product market fit. We improve engagement, we grow members, we grow our revenue. It's the same formula, I think everywhere we go. And there's certainly plenty of room to grow in India as long as we keep thrilling our audiences there," he added.</p>
<p>Netflix's upcoming line-up for India in 2024 includes non-fiction content such as &ldquo;Modern Masters feat SS Rajamouli&rdquo;, &ldquo;Nayanthara: Beyond the Fairy Tale&rdquo; and &ldquo;Yo Yo Honey Singh&rdquo;.</p>
<p>In the fiction space, the most anticipated returning titles are &ldquo;Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein&rdquo; season two, Taapsee Pannu-Vikrant Massey starrer &ldquo;Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba&rdquo;, &ldquo;The Great Indian Kapil Show S2&rdquo; and the third season of &ldquo;Fabulous Lives Vs Bollywood Wives&rdquo;.</p>
<p>Anubhav Sinha&rsquo;s gripping drama &ldquo;IC814: The Kandahar Hijack&rdquo;, &ldquo;Do Patti&rdquo;, featuring Kajol and Kriti Sanon, and "Vijay 69&rdquo; are some of the other projects from India to come out on the streamer this year.&nbsp;</p>

‘Baby Reindeer’s’ alleged ‘real Martha’ accused Netflix of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, gross negligence, and violating her right of publicity.

'Baby Reindeer': Woman claiming to be real-life Martha sues Netflix for $170M

<h2>&lsquo;Baby Reindeer&rsquo;s&rsquo; alleged &lsquo;real Martha&rsquo; accused Netflix of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, gross negligence, and violating her right of publicity.</h2>
<h2>&nbsp;</h2>

<p>The woman who claims to be the inspiration for Martha Scott in Netflix's hit series 'Baby Reindeer' has filed a $170M lawsuit against the streaming service. On June 6, Fiona Harvey filed the suit in the US District Court for the Central District of California, accusing Netflix of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, gross negligence, and violating her right of publicity.</p>
<p>Harvey is seeking at least $50M for actual damages, $50M in compensatory damages for &ldquo;mental anguish, loss of enjoyment, and loss of business,&rdquo; $50M for &ldquo;all profits from &lsquo;Baby Reindeer,&rsquo;&rdquo; and $20M in punitive damages.</p>
<p>&lsquo;Baby Reindeer&rsquo; follows Gadd&rsquo;s Donny Dunn, a struggling comedian who encounters Martha at the bar where he works. Martha is revealed to be a dangerous serial stalker who sent him over 41,000 emails, 744 tweets, 100 pages of letters, and 350 hours of voicemails over several years.</p>
<p>The lawsuit alleges Netflix &lsquo;did literally nothing&rsquo; to verify the statements in the series, which is presented as a true story, regarding Harvey.</p>
<p>&lsquo;It never investigated whether Harvey was convicted, a very serious misrepresentation of the facts,&rsquo; the complaint states.</p>
<p>&lsquo;It did nothing to understand the relationship between Gadd and Harvey, if any. It did nothing to determine whether other facts, including an assault, the alleged stalking or the conviction was accurate,&rsquo; the complaint states.</p>
<p>The series portrays Martha as a convicted criminal who spent five years in prison for stalking Gadd and another woman. She is also depicted as stalking a policeman and sexually assaulting Gadd.</p>
<p>Harvey asserts she has never been convicted of any crime and denies stalking or assaulting Gadd, physically or sexually.</p>
<p>Notably, Harvey&rsquo;s real name wasn&rsquo;t used in the series, which might complicate proving defamation.</p>
<p>This complaint follows Netflix settling a defamation lawsuit filed by Linda Fairstein, an ex-prosecutor who sued over her portrayal in &lsquo;When They See Us.&rsquo; As part of the settlement, Netflix agreed to move a disclaimer from the end credits to the beginning of each episode.</p>

Netflix secures a $5B deal for exclusive WWE streaming rights, including Raw and pay-per-view events. This deals marks a major leap into live sports for Netflix

Netflix lands $5 billion exclusive streaming deal for WWE's Raw

<p>Netflix secures a $5B deal for exclusive WWE streaming rights, including Raw and pay-per-view events. This deals marks a major leap into live sports for Netflix</p>

<p>Netflix has clinched a $5 billion deal to exclusively livestream World Wrestling Entertainment's (WWE) flagship program, Raw, starting from January 2025. This 10-year agreement will not only cover the United States but also extend its reach to Canada, Britain, and Latin America.</p>
<p>As part of the deal, Netflix has secured exclusive streaming rights for all WWE shows and specials outside the US, encompassing fan-favorites like SmackDown and high-stakes pay-per-view events including WrestleMania and Royal Rumble.</p>
<p>Sources suggest that Netflix has the option to extend the exclusivity of WWE's Raw for an additional 10 years or reconsider its position after the initial five years, according to a report by Reuters.</p>
<p>This strategic move by Netflix aligns with its recent forays into live events, beginning with comedian Chris Rock's stand-up special, "Selective Outrage," and gaining traction with sports-themed programming like the Formula 1 documentary series, "Drive to Survive," and the golf-focused "Full Swing."</p>
<p>The acquisition of WWE's Raw marks Netflix's first substantial venture into long-term live events catering to a dedicated, multi-generational fan base. Unlike traditional sports, WWE offers year-round entertainment, enhancing Netflix's appeal and value as it expands its ad-supported streaming service, referred to in the industry as AVOD.</p>
<p>Raw, which airs on Mondays and boasts 1,600 episodes since its 1993 debut, consistently dominates the USA Network, drawing 17.5 million unique viewers annually. This move comes as the previous rights agreement with Comcast concludes, where Raw received approximately $265 million annually, as reported by Bloomberg News.</p>
<p>The WWE's merger with Endeavor Group's UFC last year, forming TKO Group Holdings in a $21 billion deal, solidified its position as a powerhouse in the wrestling and entertainment industry. The Netflix-WWE partnership is set to redefine the streaming landscape, bringing the intense and captivating world of professional wrestling to a global audience.<br><br><strong>Also Watch: <a href="https://www.editorji.com/business-news/budget/budget-2024-direct-tax-to-gdp-ratio-peaks-to-a-15-year-high-in-fy23-1706074085451">Budget 2024: Direct tax to GDP ratio peaks to a 15 year high in FY23</a></strong></p>

Netflix said that it is increasing the price of its basic plan in the United States to $11.99 monthly and its premium plan to $22.99

Netflix raises subscription prices in U.S., UK, France; keeps India out of price hike strategy

<h2>Netflix said that it is increasing the price of its basic plan in the United States to $11.99 monthly and its premium plan to $22.99</h2>

<p>Netflix increased subscription prices for select streaming plans in the United States, Britain, and France, leading to a surge of 10% in its share price as it exceeded new customer acquisition expectations. The company attracted nearly 9 million new subscribers worldwide, surpassing the 6 million forecast by Wall Street analysts surveyed by LSEG.</p>
<p>Netflix attributed this growth to its efforts to curtail password-sharing and a consistent flow of new content, including the global hit "One Piece." The premium ad-free plan in the U.S. saw a $3 per month price hike, reaching $22.99, while the basic plan with a single stream increased by $2 per month.</p>

<h3><strong>Netflix keeps India out of price hike strategy</strong></h3>
<p>However, India has proven to be a different game altogether for the American streaming company which has referred to the market as a &ldquo;big prize&rdquo;. Just six months ago, Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos said during the earnings call that the 20-60 per cent price reduction announced in India in December 2021, along with an improved slate, led to 30 per cent improvement in user engagement year-on-year.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Investors responded positively to the news, driving Netflix shares up by over 10% in after-hours trading, reaching $382.99.</p>
<p>As the streaming video pioneer nears market saturation in the United States and faces stiff competition from companies like Walt Disney, Warner Bros Discovery, and others, it continues to explore ways to boost its revenue.</p>

As commercials help bring in more revenue per user, Netflix is planning to increase the price of ad free content and move the subscribers to choose content with Ads

After password sharing crackdown Netflix may increase price 

<h2>As commercials help bring in more revenue per user, Netflix is planning to increase the price of ad free content and move the subscribers to choose content with Ads</h2>

<p><strong>Netflix price: </strong>Netflix's password sharing crackdown was a huge success as the streaming platform likely boosted its subscribers by about 6 million in the third quarter. After this, Netflix is expected to set the stage for price increases when it reports earnings on Wednesday, reported Reuters.</p>
<h3><strong>Price Hike</strong></h3>
<p>Unlike, Disney which increased the ad-free prices this year, Netflix sought to curb password-sharing outside households to tap the more than 100 million viewers who use its service without subscribing.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Netflix now closely resembles a utility in many markets,&rdquo; analysts at Bernstein told Reuters. &ldquo;The challenge of being labeled a utility is how a maturing company continues finding growth.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Netflix is expected to increase the price of ad free content as most viewers who subscribed after the password crackdown have opted for the ad-free plans. Its standard plan with ads costs $6.99 a month, while the ad-free plans start at $15.49. Meanwhile, by increasing the price the streaming firm would push most of the subscribers to contents with ads as commercials help bring in more revenue per user.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Using these tactics, Netflix will likely double its ad-supported viewership next year,&rdquo; Insider Intelligence analyst Ross Benes told Reuters.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Reuters quoted Visible Alpha estimates and said the ad tier is expected to bring in some $188.1 million in revenue in the third quarter ended September, with subscriber additions of 2.8 million.</p>
<h3><strong>Hollywood Protest</strong></h3>
<p>Netflix is likely to hike prices after the end of the Hollywood actors strike. Five months after calling a strike that plunged Hollywood into turmoil, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) last week approved a new contract with major studios.</p>
<p>Netflix, however, has weathered the strike well due to its strong international presence.</p>

<p>Netflix is looking for an AI Product Manager and is ready to offer up to Rs 7.4 crore ($900,000) annually. This comes amid the Hollywood unions' protest against the increasing reliance on artificial intelligence and algorithms in the entertainment industry. Actors and writers are demanding better wages and regulations on studios' use of emerging technology.</p>

Netflix will restrict account and password sharing in India starting July 20. The service will now become harder to use for non-primary household members.

Netflix password sharing comes to an end in India, all details here

<h2>Netflix will restrict account and password sharing in India starting July 20. The service will now become harder to use for non-primary household members.</h2>

<p>Netflix has announced that it will be implementing restrictions on account and password sharing among users in India, beginning July 20.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This follows similar steps taken in the United States earlier this year, and has been expanded to over 100 countries as of May.</p>
<p>Users who have been using one account across multiple households will receive an email detailing the steps they need to take in order to continue using Netflix. The email will ask those users to transfer their profile to a new account and subscription.</p>
<p>The new restrictions will make it increasingly difficult for those outside the primary household to access a Netflix account.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This includes a need to enter verification codes for access for up to seven days, or connecting to the primary Wi-Fi network at least once every 31 days.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Netflix will be verifying devices in a household by tracking IP addresses, device IDs, and account activity.</p>
<p>Netflix has also announced that it will be rolling out paid sharing in various regions, although there is no word yet on if this option will be available to Indian users.</p>
<p>Netflix's recent crackdown on account and password sharing in India is sure to create difficulties for those who have been using the service across multiple households.</p>
<p>However, Netflix hopes to make it easier for its primary users to access the service away from home.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br>&lsquo;Pet themes from Paatal Lok and Udta Punjab show up in different ways in the quite spectacular Kohrra on @NetflixIndia. Cop buddies, drugs, crime and so many fucked up people inhabit a haunting world set somewhere in Punjab. Some terrific performances by @Suvinder_Vicky and @BarunSobtiSays. In fact most of the ensemble is so well cast and does really well. Well written, excellently directed and unabashedly authentic this is Indian storytelling at its best. Kudos Sudip Sharma, Gunjit, Diggy and Randeep Jha.</p>

<p>Netizens are calling out Netflix&rsquo;s decision to re-release the Oscar-winning film &lsquo;Titanic&rsquo; on the platform. &lsquo;Bad timing,&rsquo; a Twitter user commented.</p>

<p>James Cameron&rsquo;s Oscar-winning film &lsquo;Titanic&rsquo; is all set to re-release on streaming giant Netflix on July 1 in the U.S. and Canada.</p>
<p>However, this decision of the OTT platform has irked many social media users as it comes days after the Titan tourist submersible sank, killing all five onboard.</p>
<p>&lsquo;Anyone else find it f***ing terrifying that they ALREADY have a documentary of the Titanic sun on Netflix? It hasn&rsquo;t even been a f***ing week bruh. Wtf. #setup,&rsquo; a Twitter user wrote.<br>&lsquo;So Netflix was like &ldquo;lets capitalize on this sub thing real quick&hellip;gone head and put TITANIC back in the rotation,&rsquo; another one wrote.</p>

Netflix CEO says $2.5 bn investment an 'opportunity' for South Korea

<p>South Korea's service providers had accused Netflix of free-riding on their networks. They say that despite significant traffic congestion, Netflix continues to pay the standard rate</p>

<p>Netflix's $2.5 billion investment in South Korea is an "opportunity" for local business, the streaming giant's CEO said Thursday, as he played down a dispute with local internet companies over network usage.</p>
<p>South Korea is one of Netflix's biggest suppliers of television series and films, and boss Ted Sarandos said it was "investing for the long term" in the country, which has given the company global hits Squid Game and The Glory.</p>
<p>Outlining how the $2.5 billion -- announced in April in Washington while Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was on a state visit -- would be spent, Sarandos praised the "amazing partnership between the Korean creative community and Netflix".</p>
<p>"But I believe we're just scratching the surface of what's possible," he added, vowing to invest heavily in training South Korea's next generation of storytellers, in addition to boosting funding for original shows.</p>
<p>"We have to invest in their talent collectively as an industry. Between 2022 and 2025, for example, one in five Netflix titles in Korea will have come from a first-time writer or director," he said.</p>
<p>But South Korea's service providers have accused Netflix, which launched in the country in 2016, of free-riding on their networks -- paying the standard rate, despite the significant traffic congestion it has caused.</p>
<p>Netflix sued SK Broadband in 2020, asking the court to confirm that it has no obligation to pay network usage fees to SK Broadband.</p>
<p>However, the court ruled with the Korean firm, saying it was "reasonable" for Netflix to be "obligated to provide something in return". Netflix has appealed.</p>
<p>SK Broadband filed a separate suit against Netflix in 2021 arguing it should have to pay for costs from increased network traffic and maintenance work because of a surge in viewers for its content. The case is ongoing.</p>
<p>Sarandos said he wouldn't call the current legal dispute a "conflict".</p>
<p>"I would say that there's opportunity as businesses evolve. There's a clear, direct and symbiotic relationship between creative companies like ours and internet industries," the told reporters in Seoul.</p>
<p>"We've invested about a billion US dollars in developing this open connect system which improves and reduces the cost of delivery of bits around the world."</p>
<p>He stressed Netflix has about 18,000 servers across 6,000 locations in 175 countries that "make the internet move faster and more efficiently", and the investment will only continue.</p>
<p>"I'd say that the opportunity to work together to create a better consumer experience for the internet, for content, for general joy of consumers is something we should be doing together."</p>
<p>Over the past few years, South Korean content has taken the world by storm, with more than 60 percent of Netflix viewers watching a show from the country in 2022, company data showed.</p>

Netflix saw a surge of 100,000 new users in the US after cracking down on password sharing.

Netflix's password sharing crackdown pays off, adds 100,000 new users in the US

<p>Netflix saw a surge of 100,000 new users in the US after cracking down on password sharing.</p>

<p>Netflix saw a surge of 100,000 new users in the US after cracking down on password sharing. The company estimates that 100 million households are sharing passwords outside their homes. Users can now add an extra member to their account for $8 per month in the US. The move has been met with mixed reactions. Some users are willing to pay the extra fee, while others have criticised Netflix for trying to squeeze more money out of them. It remains to be seen whether Netflix's crackdown on password sharing will be a long-term success.</p>
