Anil Kapoor’s 24 Returns to Streaming on JioHotstar April 24 With Weekly Episode Drops

The digital return uses weekly drops to court today’s thriller‑hungry streaming audience.

Overview

  • Friday’s announcement set April 24 as the start date for both seasons on JioHotstar, with eight episodes releasing every Friday.
  • Anil Kapoor stoked interest a day earlier with an X post telling JioHotstar “you have 24 hours,” which prompted Season 3 chatter without any official renewal.
  • The rollout is a re-release of the existing 48 episodes rather than new chapters, using a staggered schedule instead of a full-season binge.
  • Kapoor called the show “an adrenaline rush,” saying its real-time, high-pressure format kept him on edge as both actor and storyteller.
  • The Indian adaptation of the US hit first aired in 2013 and 2016, using one-hour episodes to track a single day, a format that helped shape later premium Indian thrillers.
