Hi Satya,

You can use discover for this.

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?api_key=###&primary_release_date.gte=2016-01-01&primary_release_date.lte=2017-01-01&sort_by=popularity.desc

This is searching for movies that have a release date greater than or equal to 2016-01-01 and less than or equal to 2017-01-01.

Cheers.
