Knowing Hotstar, it might be a glitch. But it may also be possible that we are not aware about how it works. Maybe they just give ads on the free version. Cannot say🤷♂️
@netuser123 With VIP subscription you can watch Indian regional content be it Hindi or Telugu, etc., but with ads. You can also watch live cricket. Any other Hollywood movies dubbed into regional languages can also be watched.
Hotstar Premium on the other hand gives you access to all the content and without ads
@Starman and @netuser123 there is some content available for free on Hotstar. Try logging out and start streaming the IPL match that is live now. You won't be able to watch it. If logging in can give you access, your plan is active. Also content that is not free has a VIP/Premium badge on the thumbnail clearly.
Look for vip logo on top left corner. Those movies u can watch with your vip subscription... Some movies/all tv shows will have premium logo those you cannot watch with your vip account you need to have a premium account for that. And remaining some regional languages movies don't have any logos those are free to watch .. You can watch them with/without any account..
I think now I know what my problem is. Login to the Disney+Hotstar with the "Registered Number" will not work. The user needs to log in with the Jio number. After I logged in I could watch the IPL match for only 5 mins (the preview).
This proves I am not able to take advantage of the Jio offer.
