Binges may come and go, but you’ll never forget your first. Just like in your romantic relationship, it takes a date or two for you to know the person, and a few more to go all the way. Just like your journey with Netflix - from bonding over fandom to deciding what to watch together, from creating profiles to sharing Netflix passwords, from cheating (on your favourite shows) to your first binge.

 

Americans take an average of 14 days to start their first binge and in UK they take 12. But when it comes to India, we certainly don’t shy away from what we want and what we love.

According to data, it takes Indians only 5 days to start their first binge on Netflix. Ask any of the 90% of members who have already experienced their first binge, and they'll be able to tell you who it was with, where they were and how long it lasted.
