If you have been scrolling endlessly through Netflix, Prime Video or JioHotstar and you’ve never quite figured out what to watch next, this week could take care of that.
The third week of June is packed with new OTT releases across genres. For edge-of-the-seat thrillers, emotional dramas, romance, comedy or family entertainment, streaming platforms have lined up several highly anticipated titles. And leading the charge is one of the most loved thriller franchises in Indian cinema - Drishyam.
The biggest release is probably Drishyam 3 for many viewers. The movie has been available on digital release since the beginning of the movie. The movie again is about Georgekutty, the ordinary man who finds himself as he always does. And since the series is so popular in Indian thriller cinema, audiences are eagerly awaiting the next chapter from home.
But Drishyam 3 is not just the title that is generating buzz.
Netflix is bringing I Will Find You, a mystery thriller that has already got suspense drama fans excited. The story is based on the tale of a father who believes that his son whose body was dead for years might still be alive. What follows is a desperate search for answers, with twists, secrets and emotional moments. And if you like mysteries that keep you guessing until the end you will probably feel like you should have one of these to watch.
As Thukra Ke Mera Pyaar Season 2 finally comes around, Indian web series fans will be happy as well. The first season had emotional storytelling that left you feeling like the TV show, characters that are the same and darkly funny and also the plot turns out to be a great lesson, most of the time. And now that the show is back (with more people in the room, more conflicts, more relationships and more surprises) it has been a big deal to see what happens when it comes back with more people, more conflict, more drama and more twists.
We also have lighter entertainment on the menu. Save The Tigers Season 3 is back with its trademark mix of humor and everyday family chaos. Comedy in such moments of comedy that most viewers can relate to and that the show has found a cult audience so it’s a perfect weekend thing to watch.
One of the most interesting things about this week’s OTT lineup is its diversity. Thriller and dramas are the norm, but also romantic movies, international releases, regional-language projects are being published on streaming platforms. So viewers won’t be left with no choice about genre.
In so many ways, June has already been a good month for OTT platforms, but this week is special because it has big franchise releases and new original content and it’s the kind of line-up that will keep people occupied for the entire weekend.
So if you plan a binge-watching session, a family movie night or what to do at work after you have all day to watch, the next days will have a lot to digest. And if there is one title everyone seems to be talking about, it’s “Drishyam 3” a movie that could once again prove why some stories never die.
