Streaming platforms are notorious for their lack of transparency, allowing them to quote numbers that are tough to verify. Ormax Media, a media consulting firm, has began tracking viewership figures of the top releases across major platforms.
Here's a list of the most-viewed Hindi shows and movies from the Indian streaming space during the week of December 7th, 2020 – December 13th, 2020. The numbers are all estimates based only within India.

The second chapter of the Bobby Deol-starrer, directed by Prakash Jha topping this list is no surprise, because the first chapter that dropped in August this year has been consistently showing up on this list. Deol plays the conman-godman, a sinister figure in this 9 part series that also stars Chandan Roy Sanyal and Anupriya Goenka among others.
