What is Hotstar?
Hotstar is an Indian over-the-top streaming service. A merger between media companies in 2019 resulted in Disney’s ownership of Hotstar, with the service officially becoming known as Disney+ Hotstar.
Long known domestically and overseas as a great place to stream cricket, Hotstar has grown its catalog of content to offer something for everyone. Sports fanatics can enjoy exclusive streams of top sporting events from both inside and outside India, like the ICC Cricket World Cup and the English Premier League.
And for those who are into soap operas and movies, the service is the only place to catch award-winning Hotstar Specials, while also offering the latest Hollywood, Bollywood, HBO, and Disney+ productions.

How to stream on your TV
with ExpressVPN
Using ExpressVPN means secure streaming in blazing-fast HD! Here are four ways to stream with a VPN:
Download the app to a smart TV. If you have a TV that can install the ExpressVPN app directly, such as Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, or Android TV, just search for the app and install!
Connect via HDMI cable. Simply run an HDMI cable from another device with ExpressVPN installed to your TV. Don’t have an HDMI cable handy? Try mirroring or casting instead.
Use MediaStreamer. Though MediaStreamer doesn’t offer the privacy protection of a VPN, it works with devices like smart TVs and gaming consoles that normally can’t install a VPN.
Use a VPN-enabled router. With ExpressVPN installed on your router, every device in your home—including your smart TV—can enjoy all the benefits of a VPN. This even covers devices that can’t install a VPN directly.
Besides smart TVs, ExpressVPN also works with a wide range of devices—and you can connect up to eight at the same time with a single subscription!
FAQ: How to watch Hotstar live online
No. ExpressVPN is a separate service from Star Sports and Hotstar and does not replace Star Sports or Hotstar. ExpressVPN complements your existing Star Sports and Hotstar subscription by giving you HD sports streams with added privacy, no throttling, and no data logging.
Hotstar is available on a wide range of devices, including:
-
Smartphones and tablets, including iOS and Android
-
Computers, including Mac, Windows, and Linux
-
Smart TVs and TV box systems, including Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV Stick, and Samsung Smart TV
-
Game consoles, including PlayStation and Xbox
ExpressVPN has easy-to-use apps for many of these devices and covers up to eight devices simultaneously with a single subscription. But even if your device cannot install ExpressVPN directly, you can still enjoy full VPN benefits by connecting it to a router running ExpressVPN.

All VPNs have the potential to slow your internet connection, but using ExpressVPN may actually improve your connection if your ISP is throttling your Hotstar traffic. If you do notice a drop in video quality, make sure you connect to an Indian server location or a nearby server.
