Dangal Play is a free-to-use multimedia app that brings TV channels plus video-on-demand (VoD) content right to your fingertips. Among its offerings are Dangal TV, one of the most-viewed TV channels in India, plus the leading Bhojpuri-language channel Bhojpuri Cinema. With an intuitive video streaming app layout, this lets you enjoy a wide range of TV shows, films, plus live screenings on your device.

Although Dangal Play has an extensive library, users have been complaining about its unresponsive UI and the videos intermittently unavailable. It’s like a low-budget alternative to streaming giants Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.

Get prime channels on the go

As mentioned, the primary offerings of the Dangal Play App are its two major channels. Dangal TV is a Hindi-language general entertainment channel that is among the most widely broadcasted channels not only in India but in other parts of the world with Hindi-speaking populations. On the other hand, Bhojpuri Cinema is a film-focused TV channel. Its library promises over 3,000 hours of nonstop content, from movies to TV shows.

For the app itself, it doesn’t really reinvent the mobile streaming game. Like most streaming platforms, its library is immediately available as soon as you open the app. Titles are sorted based on what you’re watching or what’s currently popular on the platform. Similarly, it groups its offerings based on the type of content, genre, or keywords to make it easy for you to start watching.

Unfortunately, the app is riddled with ads. While its content is free and is officially distributed, it feels a lot like a pirated streaming site with all its ads before playing and in the middle of a program, interrupting your experience. Similarly, some of its content is hidden behind a paywall, which could get frustrating. Still, with the volume of content available, these small inconveniences remain tolerable.

Get two TV channels for free

The biggest redeeming quality of Dangal Play is that it is free. As such, you get to watch thousands of shows and movies from two channels anytime, anywhere. On a positive note, consistent ads can make your experience feel like old-school TVs punctuated by commercial ads every now and then. With an intuitive layout and a lot of Hindi and Bhojpuri language content at your fingertips, it’s a must-have.
