  • Open the Google Play Store
  • Now, go to the Search tab
  • Find the required movie or TV show. For example, write “Jawaan” or “Harry Potter”

Apart from this, the app will also show you whether you can watch the content for free or if you will have to rent/subscribe.

If you can’t find the details simply by searching, then know the feature might be just on its way! The feature is being gradually rolled out to all users, hence it may take some time to reach everyone.
