Netflix's co-CEO Ted Sarandos was in India recently to unveil the first look of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Heeramandi web series. At a business summit, Sarandos also spoke about the recently-released Smriti Mundhra-helmed documentary The Romantics, which documents the advent of Yash Raj Films and Yash Chopra's legacy in Indian cinema. Sarandos emphasized how it helped him understand the country, its culture, and Indian cinema.

Sarandos further said that he wanted all Netflix employees to watch the four-episode documentary to understand the country's business and storytelling culture.
