The new Disney Plus Hotstar Mobile plan is included with access to all Disney and Hotstar content that too in the original language. That said, the plan costs Rs 499 a year and is only limited to mobile phones, much like the Netflix Mobile plan. You cannot stream the content on any other device be it a web or TV app, with this plan. The Disney Plus Hotstar Mobile plan content library will be as follows: live sports, Hotstar specials, Disney+ Originals web series, and movies. Additionally, you can stream the latest American movies and TV shows. But because of its lower price, all the streaming will be available in HD quality only.

The country has over 600 million smartphone users, and most of these people rely on it as their primary device for many purposes, including streaming. By offering an ultra-affordable Mobile plan, the company is looking to increase its stake in the market and bringing more customers on board.
