Narivetta – Watch it
Streaming now on Sony LIV, this Malayalam film puts Tovino Thomas right in the middle of a real-life political storm which was the 2003 Muthanga incident. It’s intense, deeply rooted in Kerala’s social tensions.
Aap Jaisa Koi – Skip It
This romantic drama starring R. Madhavan and Fatima Sana Shaikh is now streaming on Netflix. It is just a mellow version of Rocky Aur Ranii Ki Prem Kahani, and that too with a slippery narrative.
Moonwalk – Watch it
This one’s for the MJ fans. Available on JioHotstar Moonwalk is part concert film, part music video fever dream in Malayalam.
Ballard – Watch it
Now streaming on Prime Video, Ballard dives deep into L.A.’s shadows with Maggie Q playing a no-nonsense detective haunted by more than just crime scenes. If you liked Bosch, this carries that same gritty DNA.
Foundation Season 3 – Watch it
Apple TV+ brings back its epic sci-fi world with more scale, more timelines, and more high-stakes collapse. Season 3 introduces new powers and threats.
Detective Ujjawalan – Skip it
This Malayalam film on Netflix is as quirky as it is clever. Dhyan Sreenivasan plays a bookish small-town detective who suddenly finds himself way over his head, but you’ll enjoy every misstep, twist, and unexpected punchline along the way.
Four Years Later – Skip it
Streaming on Lionsgate Play, this Australian-Indian series captures the quiet ache of a marriage stretched across continents and time. It’s the kind of slow-burn story that doesn’t feel worth it. There are too many
Karate Kid: Legends – Skip it
Now available on Prime Video, this reboot brings back Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio to train a new underdog. It’s nostalgic, yes, but very badly made. This film should not be on your watchlist if you want to savour the best of the earlier films.
8 Vasantalu – Watch it
Streaming across Netflix, Hotstar, and Prime Video, this Telugu-language film explores love through eight different lenses. It’s gentle, poetic, and experimental, which is rare for a Telugu film. Despite that, the film lacks a soul. It is not the best film you can watch but just because it dares to experiment, it can be watched.
