INDIA
Watch Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Bengali movies onilne for free
BharatMovies – This site has a large list of movies in six different Indian languages! Some movies are in Divx and some are simply from postings on YouTube. Of course, since most of these movies are copyright protected, you might get an error saying a particular movie has been removed due to infringement, etc. However, there list has quite a lot of recent movies like 15 Park Avenue, 1971, 36 China Town, Aap Ka Surroor, Awarapan, Cheeni Kum, etc. Also, if the first source does not work, make sure to scroll down because they sometimes have another source that might work.
ApnaView – This is another good site for the latest Bollywood movies. It also has movies in other languages, including Punjabi, Malayalam, and Tamil. It also has a lot of Hindi movie songs to watch. There are a couple of other sites out there, but what I like about these two is that there are not thousands of ads pasted everywhere and they don’t have very many pop-ups! ApnaView has pretty good quality movies and most of the links work!
Rajshri – This site has about 290 free films that you can watch, but they are mostly older Indian movies, like Hum Aapke Hain Koun and Hum Saath Saath Hain. Fun movies to watch, but not the latest. They do have the latest movies, but they are not free, you have to pay USD $9.99 per movie to download it. Not worth doing that, but if you’re in the mood for an older movie with good quality, you can check out this site. Also, they have music songs, videos and concerts all for free. You can watch free Hindi music videos to your heart’s desire!
BollyClips – This site actually has movies in Marathi also! I have not seen any other site with Marathi movies yet! Anyway, they also have some of the more recent Bollywood movies, including The Train, Shakalaka Boom Boom, etc in high quality. They also have MP3′s, radio and news/gossip videos. To watch the free movies, click on Full Movies at the top.
