Headlined by Dulquer Salmaan, the period thriller is set in 1950s Madras, making it the most anticipated Tamil-connected title of the week. With pan-Indian support cast including Samuthirakani and Rana Daggubati, the film’s multi-language release ensures it reaches a broader audience, but its roots and backdrop make it especially resonant for Tamil viewers.
Netflix strengthens its line-up for Tamil households with a mix of global favourites: Record of Ragnarok S3, Rowan Atkinson’s comedy Man vs Baby, the murder puzzle Wake Up Dead Man, and the emotional drama The Accident Season 2. Families looking for light-hearted content can turn to Single Papa, while thriller fans get fresh picks like City of Shadows and Had I Not Seen the Sun – Part 2.
JioHotstar adds scale with Superman (2025) and the returning Percy Jackson Season 2, both expected to draw younger Tamil audiences who enjoy fantasy and superhero storytelling. SonyLIV delivers something grounded with the sports drama Real Kashmir FC, while Zee5’s Saali Mohabbat offers a crime-heavy alternative for mature viewers.
