The Malayalam movie Odum Kuthira Chaadum Kuthira, starring Fahadh Faasil and Kalyani Priyadarshan, is coming to Netflix on September 26. The film, which released in theatres on August 29 during the Onam festival, received negative reviews and performed poorly at the box office. Critics pointed out that the story was cluttered and inconsistent, making it hard for audiences expecting a simple rom-com to enjoy.
Despite this, the film has a chance to find a new audience through its digital release. Netflix will stream the movie in multiple languages, including Malayalam, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada, giving fans across India an opportunity to watch it. The story follows a couple whose wedding preparations go awry after an unexpected accident, leading to a series of unusual events.
The festive season and the success of Kalyani Priyadarshan’s recent hit Lokah may help the movie gain attention on OTT. Her growing popularity, combined with Fahadh Faasil’s presence in a romantic comedy, could attract viewers who missed it in theatres. Even films that do not do well at the box office often find a second life on streaming platforms, especially when the cast has strong fan followings.
