The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will be available in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. Disney+ Hotstar has announced that the next Marvel Cinematic Universe series will be offered in the three Indian languages, and has released localised versions of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier trailer alongside. That makes The Falcon and the Winter Soldier the first Disney+ original to be dubbed for Indian viewers — and also opens it up for new audiences. Since it'll be available in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, you can watch The Falcon and the Winter Soldier even with a Disney+ Hotstar VIP subscription, that costs Rs. 399 per year. If you want to watch it in the original English, you'll naturally need Disney+ Hotstar Premium that costs Rs. 299 a month or Rs. 1,499 a year.

It's interesting that Disney+ Hotstar has decided to start doing localisation for Disney+ originals with The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Its predecessor, WandaVision — the first series from Marvel Studios that ended its nine-episode run last Friday, March 5 — was only available in English. This suggests that WandaVision was quite successful on Disney+ Hotstar (we don't have any numbers though), and that has convinced Hotstar that it's worth the extra effort and financial investment to localise Marvel's new TV shows in additional Indian languages. But could this mean that more Disney+ originals might be dubbed going forward? Disney+ Hotstar said that would depend on the title.

While this might be new to the MCU on TV, Disney India has offered the big screen MCU experience in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu for a while now. In fact, it's rare that a Disney-produced movie isn't localised for India, as was the case with the latest animated adventure Raya and the Last Dragon. Disney India was even starting to broaden its localisation offerings, with the Scarlett Johansson-led Black Widow set to be available in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada — making it the first Marvel movie to be dubbed in five Indian languages. But since it hasn't released due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Disney India hasn't had a chance to see whether that was justified.
