Prime Video Presents, Prime Video’s biggest event, has begun. Expect a slate of announcements and updates. Standby for more details.

Karan Johar is the host of this year's Prime Video Presents.

“One of the biggest questions today is 'what do I watch? And Prime Video has the answer to that,” says Gaurav Gandhi - Vice President, Prime Video, APAC.

“If you're not a subscriber, we also offer an array of AVOD content where you can watch TV and films without a subscription. We do that for the brand FreeVee around the world, and here in India, we have miniTV, which is available on Prime Video and on our retail site. Speaking of miniTV, our business is doing really well, where we've grown four times in overall watch time since 2023,” says Mike Hopkins, Senior Vice President at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios.

“As we look at the next 250 million subscribers that we're going to acquire, they are definitely going to come from outside of the United States. India is a key geography for us. More people are streaming TV and film than they're watching it on linear television on satellite cable here and what's remarkable about that is that streaming has only really existed for 7or 8 years. So, this is all happening remarkably fast. At Amazon, we use the phrase ‘it's always Day 1’ and it really is Day 1 of streaming in India and around the world. India is also a content hub and people have been making great television and film in India, long before streaming services launched,” says Mike Hopkins, Senior Vice President at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios.

“For the last several years, more people have signed up for Prime in India than anywhere else in the world. More people sign up for Prime Video here than any other benefit," says Mike Hopkins, Senior Vice President at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios.

"We're working on a big show with MrBeast (American YouTuber). Super excited for that to come to Prime Video," says Mike Hopkins, Senior Vice President at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios.

"Close to 70 new shows and films are coming over to Prime Video India in the next few years," says Mike Hopkins, Senior Vice President at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios.
