The Yogurt Shop Murders OTT release date in India: Here's when and where you can stream true-crime docuseries
The Yogurt Shop Murders OTT release in India
The show premiered on March 10, 2025, at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival, before its launch on August 3, 2025, on HBO in the United States. The riveting series will be available to viewers in India on JioHotstar.
Returning to the grisly murders that took place in an Austin, Texas, yoghurt business, The Yogurt Shop Murders re-examines the case of four teenage girls. The investigation, court processes, and media portrayal of the case are all still up for debate, even though it has been almost 30 years since the crime occurred. Through interviews and historical records, the series seeks to provide fresh insight into the events.
Notable voices featured in the series
The documentary features the victims' loved ones as well as important players in the investigation, such as Detective Dan Jackson, homicide investigator Mike Huckabay, and police officers John Jones and Paul Johnson. Author Beverly Lowry, journalist Mike Hall, CBS News reporter Erin Moriarty, and memory specialist Robert Shomer all contribute their thoughts. Several legal professionals, including Judge Mike Lynch, Amber Farrelly, Carlos Garcia, and Joe Sawyer, shed light on the subsequent court proceedings surrounding the crime.
An aspect of the case is the focal point of each episode. The first episode, Fire and Water, will be available to stream in India on August 4. Subsequent episodes, The Fifth Victim, Mental Evidence, and In Your Time, will be released on August 11, August 18, and August 25, respectively. Margaret Brown directs every episode.
Behind-the-scenes
In January 2023, Brown acknowledged that she was really working on a documentary for HBO, but the title of the project remained a mystery. The official title, The Yogurt Shop Murders, was announced in October 2024. Emma Stone and Dave McCary serve as executive producers under their Fruit Tree banner.
Given the worldwide interest in the case and the series' meticulous investigative method, the release is expected to attract large viewing and adds to the increasing number of high-profile true-crime documentaries accessible for Indian audiences.

How Indian pacer Mohd Siraj manifested winning final Test for Team India?
The word impossible is not a part of Mohammed Siraj's dictionary as he always believed that he can win the final Test for India from any point as he pulled off one of the biggest heists in the traditional format in recent times. "I woke up in the morning and checked google on my phone and took out a 'Believe' emoji wallpaper and told myself that I will do it for the country." Without Jasprit Bumrah, the Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) of Telangana Police bowled 185.3 overs to take 23 wickets, and it couldn't have been more fitting that he earned India a win for posterity. "I always believe that I can win the game from any point, and did that to the morning," Siraj told Dinesh Karthik in a post match chat for Jio Hotstar. Having consistently troubled the English batters, Siraj finished with 5 for 104 in 30.1 overs and a match haul of nine wickets. "My only plan was to bowl good areas. Didn't matter if I took wickets or went for runs," Siraj said. His feet touched the boundary rope while trying to catch Harry Brook when the batter was on 19. Brook scored a smashing ton and it looked like the match slipping from India's grasp. "I didn't think I'd touch the cushion when I took it. It was a match-changing moment. Brook got into T20 moment. We were behind the game after that but Thank God. I thought the match was gone," Siraj said.
