Amazon Prime Video is a popular OTT choice in India but many are wondering if the ₹1,499/year is worth it. With a huge library, users are frustrated with content availability and hidden charges that make it not seamless.
The OTT space in India is crowded, Disney+ Hotstar is leading, then Prime Video and Netflix. As options grow, users want more value and Prime Video’s regional restrictions and extra charges are raising eyebrows.

One major frustration is when movies that are available on Prime Video are blocked in India or require additional rental fees (₹99). Paying ₹1,499 for a subscription and still paying more is frustrating especially when content is not available as promised.
Prime Video’s licensing agreements with content creators restrict what’s available in the subscription. So new releases and some films are available for extra rental (₹99) which feels deceitful when users expect everything to be included in the subscription.

For Amazon Originals fans, Prime Video might be a good deal. But extra charges and limited access leaves some users feeling they are not getting full value. If you want all inclusive experience, Prime Video might not meet your expectations.
Whether Prime Video is worth it depends on you. It’s good for Amazon Originals but if you want seamless access without extra fees, other platforms might be better. With competition growing, Prime Video will have to adapt to user’s growing expectations.
