Prime Video strengthens collaboration with Maddock Films for eight upcoming films
Prime Video has today announced a multi-year licensing collaboration with Maddock Films, securing worldwide-exclusive streaming rights to eight of its highly anticipated upcoming films.
The new post-theatrical licensing slate makes Prime Video the exclusive home to films from Maddock’s much-loved and celebrated horror-comedy universe premiering theatrically between 2025 and 2027. This includes ‘Thama’, in addition to two other titles in this franchise that will be announced soon. With ‘Stree 2’, the last blockbuster film from Maddock’s horror-comedy universe, Prime Video not only delivered one of the biggest hits on streaming globally but was also able to cultivate fandom for the movie far beyond its theatrical release.
The slate also includes the highly anticipated Sidharth Malhotra, Janhvi Kapoor-starrer ‘Param Sundari’ that premieres in theatres on 29th August 2025 as well as ‘Shiddat 2′ and’ Badlapur 2′, expansions of two highly successful franchises. The broader licensing collaboration also includes the Sriram Raghavan-directed ‘Ikkis’ starring Agastya Nanda, in addition to several other films to be announced soon.
The collaboration reinforces the longstanding relationship between Prime Video and Maddock Films, following a history of bringing highly popular global blockbusters such as ‘Stree 2’, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’, ‘Stree’ and many more to the service, in addition to the super-successful co-production ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’ that premiered first in theatres before coming on Prime Video, and Original series ‘Jee Karda’.
