What to Stream September 28–October 4: Dupahiya, LEGO One Piece and More
Looking for something new between September 28 and October 4, 2026? This week’s options range from a short animated adventure to a seven-episode drama, with Indian comedies and romances in between. The guide below focuses on announced streaming dates rather than titles that may be available only to rent. Catalogs and launch times can differ by country, so check the title in your local app before making plans—particularly for releases on India-focused services.
Tuesday, September 29: LEGO One Piece — Netflix
The Straw Hats return in a two-part animated special that rebuilds their adventures in LEGO form. Usopp tells Chopper about the crew’s journey through the East Blue and toward the Grand Line, with his taste for exaggeration shaping the story. This is a compact choice for viewers who want a playful revisit rather than another full season of the live-action series. Netflix lists the special for September 29.
Wednesday, September 30–Thursday, October 1: Dupahiya Season 2 — Prime Video
Dhadakpur has a new source of commotion: a proposed mobile tower that villagers blame for all manner of trouble. Meanwhile, Roshni faces an approaching exam, Bhugol navigates her newfound online visibility and Inspector Mithlesh suspects there is more to the turmoil than rumor. Gajraj Rao, Renuka Shahane and Sparsh Shrivastava return for the Hindi comedy-drama. Check the date shown in your Prime Video app: its title page displays September 30, while India release schedules place the new season on October 1. Both dates fall within this guide’s week.
Thursday, October 1: East of Eden — Netflix
For a longer weekend watch, Florence Pugh stars as Cathy Ames in Zoe Kazan’s adaptation of John Steinbeck’s novel. The story follows the Trask family across generations, with Cathy’s relationships with brothers Adam and Charles at its center. Netflix has scheduled all seven episodes of the limited series for October 1, making it an option for viewers who would rather settle into one complete story than wait for weekly installments.
Friday, October 2: Pooja Meri Jaan — ZEE5
Mrunal Thakur and Huma Qureshi lead this Hindi crime drama, directed by Navjot Gulati. Its legal conflict gives the week a more serious film option alongside the lighter releases. ZEE5 lists October 2 as the movie’s release date and identifies Hindi as its audio language. Viewers outside India should confirm whether the film appears in their regional ZEE5 catalog before counting on it for Friday night.
Friday, October 2: #Love — Netflix
If a contemporary romance sounds more appealing, this Tamil series pairs Aishwarya Lekshmi and Arjun Das as rival dating-app founders. One puts her faith in compatibility; the other argues for chemistry. A challenge between them turns their competing ideas into a personal experiment. The series arrives on Netflix on October 2. It is a useful counterweight to the week’s courtroom drama and sprawling period adaptation.
Friday, October 2: Bethlehem Kudumba Unit — JioHotstar
Nivin Pauly and Mamitha Baiju star in this Malayalam romantic comedy-drama, which moves to JioHotstar after its theatrical run. At its heart is a developing relationship between new neighbors Justin and Ashley, complicated by the families and community around them. The announced streaming date is October 2, with Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi viewing options. JioHotstar availability is market-dependent, so viewers outside India should not assume the film will appear on a service with a similar catalog.
How to choose
Start with LEGO One Piece if you want the shortest watch, or save East of Eden for a longer stretch of uninterrupted viewing. Dupahiya offers small-town ensemble comedy, while #Love and Bethlehem Kudumba Unit cover two different shades of romance. Choose Pooja Meri Jaan for a Hindi film with a darker tone. For every title, the safest final check is the release date and play button displayed in your own region: an announced premiere does not guarantee the same launch hour or catalog access everywhere.
