Director Suresh Triveni’s recently released dark comedy Maa Behen has achieved a massive global milestone by securing the second spot on Netflix’s global Top 10 non-English films list. Released on the streaming platform on June 4, the movie has quickly become a worldwide favorite, currently trending across 15 countries. It follows just behind the Spanish title The Marked Woman, which topped the chart, and stands ahead of Vignesh Raja’s Dhanush-starrer Kara.
Boasting a stellar cast that includes Madhuri Dixit, Triptii Dimri, and digital sensation Dharna Durga—alongside Geetanjali Kulkarni, Arunoday Singh, and Shardul Bhardwaj—the film explores unconventional family dynamics through a lens of humor and chaos. Reacting to the overwhelming global reception, veteran actress Madhuri Dixit shared her excitement, stating that she was drawn to the film’s ability to tell a deeply relatable story filled with heart, honesty, and entertaining chaos (kaand and kalesh).
Co-star Triptii Dimri expressed profound gratitude, noting that she was particularly touched by how deeply viewers connected with her character Jaya’s emotional monologue during a pivotal moment in the movie. For Dharna Durga, who made her official Netflix debut with the project, the soaring success marks an unforgettable start to her streaming journey. Director Suresh Triveni added that the goal was always to deliver an entertaining narrative that challenges societal judgments while remaining accessible to a broad audience. The critical acclaim and massive viewership data prove that Maa Behen has struck the perfect chord with global audiences, sparking meaningful conversations worldwide.
