Sushant Singh Rajput's Dil Bechara To Tom Hanks' Greyhound: What To Stream In July

As we continue to remain captives to the pandemic, here's a list of everything interesting set to stream in the month of July

And just like that, we’re in the second half of 2020. The pandemic situation is still pretty grave, which means we’re still captive to the many streaming platforms. And, the streaming world is acquiring some interesting, top-of-the-line projects in the coming months, something we got a hint of in Disney+Hotstar’s announcement of seven films to stream in the coming months.

Assuming you’ve already caught up with Athlete A, a compelling documentary on the sexual predators in the coaching staff of the US Gymnastics team, and the mind-bending finale of Dark Season 3, here’s everything to look forward to in the month of July.
