Netflix’s popular Lust Stories franchise returns with its third instalment, bringing four new stories exploring modern relationships, intimacy, and desire. Following the success of the 2018 anthology and the mixed response to its 2023 sequel, Lust Stories 3 is set to offer audiences a fresh collection of narratives.
The latest edition brings together an impressive lineup of filmmakers and actors. Vikramaditya Motwane directs Radhika Apte, Konkona Sen Sharma, and Vijay Varma in a tense drama, while Shakun Batra pairs Ali Fazal with Radhika Madan.
Kiran Rao’s segment features Gurfateh Pirzada and newcomer Sana Thampi, while Vishal Bhardwaj brings real-life couple Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth together for another story in the anthology.
For viewers eagerly waiting to watch the film, Lust Stories 3 premieres globally on Netflix today, September 18, 2026, at 12:30 PM IST. The afternoon release gives audiences an opportunity to stream the anthology and join the conversations surrounding its stories.
Producers Ronnie Screwvala and Ashi Dua Sara have returned to back the project, bringing together the creative team behind the franchise’s latest chapter.
With a reported runtime of approximately two and a half hours, the film is presented as a cohesive feature rather than a collection of separate episodes. Its combination of acclaimed directors and a diverse cast has generated considerable interest among viewers.
As Lust Stories 3 arrives on Netflix, audiences will be looking forward to seeing how the latest anthology explores contemporary relationships through its four distinct narratives.
