In a welcome move, Netflix India has slashed the prices for various plans offered to Indian viewers. The move from Netflix comes at a time when several netizens have raised their voices against the OTT giant for charging Rs 799 for 4K plans. Moreover, other OTT platforms like Amazon Prime Video and Disney+Hotstar are providing 4K plans to users for a very less rate compared to Netflix.
