OTT: Blockbuster ‘Michael’ Now Streaming on Two Indian Platforms, But There’s a Catch

Published on Tuesday, 09 Jun 2026 08:00 AM

Michael, the Hollywood biographical feature starring Jaafar Jackson and directed by Antoine Fuqua, is nearing the $1 billion mark and is poised to become the highest grossing biopic ever. The film follows the life and musical legacy of Michael Jackson, from his Jackson 5 beginnings to global superstardom.

The blockbuster has now arrived on OTT platforms in India and overseas through a premium rental model. Amazon Prime Video is offering the film along with select bonus content for Rs. 399, while BookMyShow Stream has priced its rental at Rs. 499. Both platforms include a Hindi dubbed version, a major draw for Indian audiences.

Despite its digital debut, Michael continues its theatrical run in Hyderabad and other major cities. Given its large scale choreography and concert style sound design, the big screen remains the preferred viewing experience. Audiences may also have to wait a considerable period before the film becomes available within a regular subscription library.

The ensemble cast includes Nia Long, Juliano Valdi, and Colman Domingo in key roles. The film also explores the emotional and turbulent family dynamics that shaped the King of Pop. Backed by huge box office success and a strong theatrical presence, Michael continues to perform strongly in cinemas and on digital platforms worldwide.
