The streaming space just got hotter!
Amazon MX Player has announced over 100 shows and films at its inaugural edition of StreamNext amid much fanfare.
Some of the shows include the concluding season of Bobby Deol's massively popular series Aashram, Naseeruddin Shah and Jim Sarbh's new show The Titan Story, Suniel Shetty and Jackie Shroff's Hunter 2, Remo D'Souza and Malaika Arora's reality dance show Hip Hop India 2, and Kalki Koechlin and Karan Tacker's horror show Bhay: The Gaurav Tiwari Story.
Also part of the line-up is the returning seasons of popular shows like Jamnapaar, Half CA, Sixer, Playground, and Who's your Gynac?.
Malaika Arora, who joins Remo D'Souza for Hip Hop India 2, promises that the second season is going to be "bigger and better".

Saba Azad, who plays Dr Vidushi Kothari in Who's your Gynac?, was excited about the second season and talked about how the show is entertaining without being preachy.
"With this show, we hope to touch upon an important topic of female sexual health, which doesn't get spoken about enough. The show is trying to put that point across with lightness. At the same time, it's a very sensitive topic. So that was challenging," Saba said.
Real-life friends Suniel Shetty and Jackie Shroff will play foes in the crime drama series Hunter 2. While Suniel reprises his role of ACP Vikram Chauhan, Jackie is a new entrant on the show.
"People often wonder about our strong friendship, so I thought it's important to have that nazar ka tika. That's why we play enemies on screen," Suniel said about his equation with Jackie.

Another notable title is Karan Tacker and Kalki Koechlin's Bhay: The Gaurav Tiwari Story, which also features Danish Sood and Saloni Batra.
The show is based on Gaurav Tiwari, a pilot-turned-Indian paranormal investigator who died in a 'mysterious way'.
Speaking about her role, Kalki said it was a 'terrifying experience' for her do a supernatural show.
