All is good but I don't get it why there is no english subtitle for some of the dramas from vijay tv, must report then the subtitles will be out.

This is a good app for entertainment, and I use jiohotstar, and I'm an undercover agent, so I have a super VPN. And I am finding about hot star or jiohotstar is better, in my opinion jio one is better except ads

There is a reason 1st hot star became bankrupt n then got bought by jio n Disney together. They are werid policies, I purchased hot star in Canada annual subscription. Currently, I am traveling to India it should keep working like other streaming sites do. They ask me purchase membership for India, so I asked pause my membership for Canada at least because it won't be used I am not there. They can't even do that. Such poor service. Content changes as country changes the subscription doesn't stop.

Never updated with new movies or series's. There is so much deference between jio hot star in india and in the UK. india jio hot star with a better selection of movies and series but uk subscribers paying higher prices with limited updates. I don't think I will be renewing my subscription.
★☆☆☆☆juliet kabwe· Mar 19, 2026
App not working well, complicated my life for the few minutes I subscribed, now I have no access to my paid for subscription. Contacted them now waiting to see if they respond. But honestly not worth it. Also, some episodes have no English subtitles and then episodes start from newest to oldest now you have to scroll from episode 1000 to episode 1.
