Asia dominated Netflix’s global non-English film chart for the week of 23-29 March, claiming seven of the top 10 spots – including the top three – in a performance that once again underscores the region’s ability to travel far beyond domestic markets.

The seven films attracted 87% of the total 58.9 million hours spent globally on the top 10 titles. 

The two European titles ended the week with a share of just under 10%, followed by a single Latin American feature with 3%. 

India in particular set the pace for the week, placing four titles in the chart – "Mardaani" 3 in top spot in its first week on the list, long-running hit "Dhurandhar" at #4 in its 9th week on the top 10, "Border" 2 at #6 and the India-South Korea feature "Made in Korea" at #7. 

India’s performance on the global rankings highlights the country’s multi-genre reach across female-led action, period action epic, war and cross-cultural coming-of-age. 

In contrast, South Korea contributed one and a bit entries – the documentary "BTS: The Return" in its debut on the rankings and its share of Made in Korea, which has been on the top 10 for three weeks.  

"BTS: The Return" premiered on 27 March, running alongside live concert "BTS The Comeback Live I Arirang". The film offers a behind-the-scenes look at band members as they regrouped in the studio to record Arirang.

Yash Raj Films’ "Mardaani" 3, released theatrically in India on 30 January, made the top 10 in 18 countries, including Canada and Australia. 

Directed by Abhiraj Minawala, the third film in the franchise stars Rani Mukerji as daredevil cop Shivani Shivaji Roy who risks everything in a race against time to save 93 missing girls. 

Thailand and Indonesia each placed one title on the latest weekly top 10.  

From the creators of Netflix blockbuster "Hunger", Thai thriller "The Red Line" is about a group of women who fall victim to a call-center scam. When the police fail to help, they team up to investigate and take justice into their own hands, determined to win their lives back. The film, starring Nittha Jirayungyurn, Esther Supreeleela, Chutima Maholakul and Tonhon Tantivejakul, released on Netflix on 26 March. "The Red Line" was directed by Sitisiri Mongkolsiri and co-written by Kongdej Jaturanrasmee and Tinnapat Banyatpiyaphoj.   

Cahaya Pictures’ Indonesian comedy horror feature, "Pesugihan Sate Gagak" (2025), from directors Etienne Caesar and Dono Pradana is about a lucrative business that turns into a terrifying trap when three friends invoke an ancient crow satay ritual and supernatural customers start patronising their food stall.  

The three non-Asian entries – Spain’s "53 Sundays", France’s "Sous écrous", and the Mexico-Venezuela co-production "It Would Be Night in Caracas" – held the bottom tier of the chart.
