While Jujutsu Kaisen season 1 was previously announced to only be released in Hindi Dub, Rahul Purini revealed that the anime is set to premiere in Tamil Dub as well on July 28, 2023. The streaming platform will be airing three new episodes every week.

Following the release of Jujutsu Kaisen season 1 Hindi Dub, the dubbed episodes of the second season will be aired in Fall 2023. Until then, fans can watch the latest episodes of the anime subtitled in English.

That's not all, as the streaming platform has also announced a Hindi Dub for the Chainsaw Man anime. The anime will premiere on Saturday, July 29, 2023. Chainsaw Man is an anime based on award-winning Mangaka Tatsuki Fujimoto's hit dark fantasy series that is serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump.

Additionally, as hinted by the Jujutsu Kaisen season 1 Tamil Dub announcement, the company is also set to release anime dubs in other languages and has announced the decision to introduce Tamil and Telugu dubs by the end of the year. This will be an attempt to expand the company's market by trying to provide for Indian fans of varied linguistic preferences.
