What to Watch on OTT

Documentaries: Netflix Rocks, Prime Video Shocked

There has been a noticeable surge in the number of documentaries being released recently, reflecting people’s growing interest in real stories. However, a recent report highlights a contrasting situation between two major OTT platforms.

Last month, two distinct documentary series were launched on Netflix and Prime Video, respectively. Interestingly, both shows are receiving polarizing reactions. “Curry and Cyanide” on Netflix has become a sensation with its unique storyline and realistic portrayals. The series delves into the events of 2006 when six deaths occurred in a single family.

On the other hand, “Wedding.con” on Prime Video, despite being a brilliant documentary, is struggling to attract audience. The story follows five women who marry through a popular wedding website only to discover that their husbands are frauds. While the series is remarkable, it is barely noticed due to a lack of marketing.

These contrasting scenarios raise questions about the reasons behind the different responses. Is it possible that Prime subscribers are not interested in documentaries, or could it be attributed to a lack of promotional material? Another factor to consider is the shock value present in the Netflix show. Your opinion on this matter would be appreciated.
