In another first for Netflix, the video streaming platform is now offering access to the first episode of its new action series Bard Of Blood to non-members in India for a limited time. The episode is available through the Netflix homepage and can be viewed on a desktop or an Android mobile device.

It is possible that the platform may offer other show episodes as well for free in the future. This is an attempt to attract more Indian users to its platform, and eventually making them pay, which has been easier said than done till now.

Netflix is under a lot of pressure considering it’s facing a slump currently in the global markets and is up against stiff competition in India as well.
