We were able to switch our profile language to Hindi even outside India.

The introduction of Hindi support for its user interface demonstrates the company’s continued efforts to become a global platform and shows how far ahead it is compared to its competitors. Netflix is likely hoping that going the extra mile to cater to international markets could help it retain audiences who might also be looking to subscribe to Disney+ and HBO Max when those services arrive in their regions.
