Lust Stories 3 OTT Release Date
Lust Stories 3 is confirmed to release on OTT in 2026 on Netflix, with the premiere expected around mid‑2026, though an exact date has not been announced yet.
On X (formerly Twitter), Netflix India (@NetflixIndia) teased the anthology with a playful note that sparks will fly, hearts will race, and Lust Stories 3 will return “soon” on Netflix with four new directors, four fresh stories, and plenty of unexpected twists.
The anthology has finished shooting and is now in post‑production, which usually means the platform will lock a date and start more aggressive promotion in the coming months.
For many viewers, this third chapter feels like a natural follow‑up to late‑night watches of Lust Stories (2018) and Lust Stories 2 (2023), only with fresh filmmakers stepping in and the expectation that the stories will go even sharper and more honest this time.
When and Where to Watch Lust Stories 3
Lust Stories 3 will stream exclusively on Netflix in India and globally, with the release window currently pegged for mid‑2026 and the final date to be revealed closer to launch.
Viewers who want to be fully caught up can already watch Lust Stories and Lust Stories 2 on Netflix, which makes it easy to turn the new release into a weekend anthology marathon when it drops.
A practical way to follow the timing is to keep an eye on Netflix India’s social channels and the in‑app “Coming Soon” row; those teaser tiles often appear a few weeks before the actual streaming time goes live, and that is usually when group chats start planning watch parties.
Cast of Lust Stories 3
Lust Stories 3 brings a new ensemble cast, with each short film led by a different set of actors rather than one single hero or heroine. Current reports highlight these key names for the four segments:
-
Radhika Apte and Konkona Sen Sharma in Vikramaditya Motwane’s story
-
Ali Fazal and Radhika Madan in Shakun Batra’s segment
-
Gurfateh Pirzada and newcomer Sana Thampi in Kiran Rao’s film
-
Aditi Rao Hydari leading Vishal Bhardwaj’s segment
The mix of familiar anthology favourites and newer faces suggests a balance of comfort and surprise, something that usually helps these short films feel less like “star vehicles” and more like sharply observed slices of urban life.
About Lust Stories 3
Lust Stories 3 continues Netflix’s Indian anthology franchise where four standalone stories explore desire, modern relationships, and power dynamics, this time with directors Vikramaditya Motwane, Shakun Batra, Kiran Rao, and Vishal Bhardwaj taking charge.
Like the first two parts, the new film focuses more on emotionally charged, sometimes awkwardly real situations than on glossy romance, often pausing on silences, small arguments, or private frustrations that rarely appear in mainstream cinema.
The franchise has built a reputation for grounded, sometimes uncomfortable storytelling around intimacy, and the third outing is positioned as a step up in both scale and confidence, backed by Netflix’s 2026 Hindi originals slate and a clear push to keep the anthology format alive on OTT.
