Sangeeth Sobhan’s Raakaasa Rises on Netflix Global Chart, Biker Misses Out

Sangeeth Sobhan’s latest comedy entertainer, Raakaasa, has made a strong impression by entering Netflix’s prestigious global top 10 non-English films chart, while Sharwanand’s Biker, which premiered on the same day, failed to secure a spot. This achievement marks another highlight in Sangeeth Sobhan’s upward trajectory, as his knack for lighthearted cinema is clearly resonating with OTT audiences.

Both Raakaasa and Biker arrived on Netflix in the same week, putting two contrasting genres and star personalities head-to-head. According to official Netflix data for the week of April 27 to May 3, 2026, Raakaasa captured the seventh position with an impressive 1.2 million views. In contrast, Biker’s performance was notably muted, as it missed entry into the platform’s top 10.

The results point towards a current viewer preference for easy-going comedy films over more intense genres, as seen in the rapid traction Raakaasa built compared to Biker. Industry watchers note this as a possible trend, with lighthearted entertainers gaining the upper hand on streaming services.

It remains to be seen whether Sharwanand’s Biker can gain momentum in the coming weeks, while fans of Sangeeth Sobhan will be eager to see what OTT success he charts next.
