Apart from a 2023 thriller, two highly anticipated Malayalam films have been released online this week, so it's time to celebrate for cinephiles. This weekend, it might also be good to see or revisit a few films that have been just released or already out on various streaming sites.

Best Malayalam OTT releases this week (January 12 to January 18)

Kalamkaval

Streaming platform - Sony LIV and OTTplay Premium

A lot of people who couldn't watch this compelling thriller in theatres were looking forward to its online release. The film revolves around a random police inquiry in Kottayikonam, which takes an odd turn when a string of brutal murders is discovered. Mammootty's performance as Stanley Das, the antagonist based on serial killer Cyanide Mohan, makes the movie a must-see.

Bha Bha Ba

Streaming platform - ZEE5 and OTTplay Premium

The film is centred on the chaos that ensue after Kerala's chief minister was abducted in a disorderly manner. Bha Bha Ba performed poorly at the movie office despite having well-known performers in its main ensemble aside from Mohanlal's cameo appearance. The online release of Bha Bha Ba is probably going to attract more people, at least to see why the film didn't leave an impression among the audience.

Kirkkan

Streaming platform - Sun NXT and OTTplay Premium

This can be a one-time watchable investigation drama for thriller fans. The narrative, which is based on a true occurrence, tells the tale of a girl who died in 2005 in a small town close to the Kottayam area. The local police's investigation into the tragedy is the film's primary focus.

Eko

Streaming platform - Netflix

The film explores the various aspects of human emotions through outstanding performances, offering an unsettling perspective on the struggle between protection and imprisonment. These elements have a significant impact on viewers of this slow-burning thriller.

Ithiri Neram

Streaming platform - Sun NXT, Amazon Prime Video & OTTplay Premium

This film explores the intricacies of romantic relationships in a society that strictly enforces gender norms. Zarin Shihab and Roshan Mathew's performances provide the narrative emotional depth.
