Prime Video has added another major accolade to its growing list of honours, with ‘Bandish Bandits Season Two’ winning the Best Web Series (OTT) Award at the 56th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa.

The musical drama series triumphed in a competitive category that also included two other Prime Video originals—’Paatal Lok Season Two’ and ‘Suzhal: The Vortex Season Two’.

According to a press release, Prime Video said the win marks a new milestone for the service, which previously secured the same award for ‘Panchayat Season Two’ at the 54th IFFI. With multiple nominations and repeated wins, the streamer continues to reinforce its influence on India’s rapidly expanding OTT landscape.

The selection was made by a distinguished jury chaired by filmmaker Bharatbala Ganapathy, with respected names from the Indian film and television industry serving as jury members.

Produced by Leo Media Collective Private Limited and created by Amritpal Singh Bindra and Anand Tiwari, ‘Bandish Bandits Season Two’ has been celebrated for its rich storytelling, layered characters, and compelling blend of classical and contemporary music. Tiwari, who also directed the season, co-wrote it with Atmika Didwania and Karan Singh Tyagi. The new chapter revisits the emotional and musical journey of Radhe and Tamanna as they balance ambition, legacy, and the pressures of an intense all-India band championship.
