Chaar Yaar is available on Prime Video in India following its 23 October 2026 release. The official Season 1 page lists all eight episodes, with Hindi audio and English subtitles among its options. Prime Video India’s verified channel also published a dated “Watch Now” announcement, linking viewers to the series.

The new Hindi crime drama centres on four friends from middle-class backgrounds whose attempt to change their circumstances pulls them into trouble with gangsters and the police. The official synopsis frames their friendship as the bond put under pressure by that decision. That is the premise, not an account of the ending or a review based on watching the episodes.

A friendship story built around one consequential decision

Purav Jha, Naman Jain, Saqib Ayub and Prayrak Mehta lead the cast. Prime Video’s catalogue credits Vinay Waikul as director, while the India announcement names an ensemble including Sikandar Kher and Sai Tamhankar. The four-friend setup gives viewers a clearer idea of the show than a release-date entry alone: the crime plot develops through the consequences for their relationship.

The official promotional video is a short introduction to the series. The full programme is the Season 1 catalogue linked below, with eight separate episode entries. Readers arriving through a social clip can use that distinction to move from the announcement to the actual episode list.

Eight episodes, with language choices on the title page

The displayed episode lengths are 46, 39, 43, 38, 43, 42, 39 and 36 minutes, in order. Those rounded catalogue figures total 326 minutes, or about five hours and 26 minutes. This is a planning estimate for the listed programme lengths; breaks, advertisements and player timing can change an actual viewing session.

The title page lists Hindi audio, a Hindi audio-description track and English and Hindi subtitles. It also includes Dialogue Boost options. Viewers who want the Hindi performances with English text should choose that audio/subtitle combination in the player’s available options rather than treating an English description of the show as evidence of an English dub.

Open the official season, then check your account’s access

Follow the Prime Video Season 1 link, select the episode you want and use your account’s displayed viewing option. India availability is supported by the official India channel. We have not verified a price or free-trial entitlement for an Indian account: the catalogue displayed a different regional interface during our check, so its trial offer is not used here.

For this weekend’s viewing decision, the confirmed essentials are the complete eight-episode listing, the Hindi-language presentation and the official Prime Video route. The length chart helps decide whether to start with one episode or reserve time for the season. Start with the Season 1 episode list to make that choice; the short official announcement supplies the introduction, while the catalogue supplies the viewing schedule.
