Can I watch ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ episodes 1 & 2 for free online?
It’s a well-known fact that Disney+ (a.k.a Disney+ Hotstar for India) doesn’t provide a free trial anymore. Unfortunately, it means you cannot watch it for free.

What to expect from ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ episodes 1 & 2?
As we revealed earlier, the show is set 10 years after Star Wars: Episode III. It will focus on Obi-Wan hiding in Tatooine. You will get a much better understanding of it by reading the official plot synopsis below:
“The story begins 10 years after the dramatic events of ‘Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith’ where Kenobi faced his greatest defeat: the downfall and corruption of his best friend and Jedi apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, turned evil Sith Lord Darth Vader.“
The first two episodes will most likely focus on a bit of story building. But since the miniseries will only have six episodes, the creators will not keep fans away from the action for a long time.
