OTT release date: October 24, 2025
Malayalam actor Nivin Pauly forays into the digital web series with Pharma. Not just Nivin’s series debut, Pharma is also noted for roping in Bollywood actor Rajit Kapur in a lead role. It would be interesting to see their collaboration.

Aabhyanthara Kuttavaali

OTT release date: October 17, 2025
This Asif Ali film revolves around a newly-married couple, with the husband facing allegations of domestic abuse. As the issue is taken up in court, Sahadevan makes a strong case of 'not all men’. Sethunath Padmakumar has written and helmed this film, which could stir up more reactions and debates upon its OTT release. Whether you agree or disagree with the makers' POV, Aabhyanthara Kuttavaali deserves a watch.
Mirage
Where to watch: Sony LIV via OTTplay Premium
OTT release date: October 23, 2025
Another Asif Ali film, but the one that takes a thriller route. Abhirami’s world is shaken after her fiancé Kiran is said to have met with a tragic end. But a hard disk that Kiran might have hidden prompts Abhirami on a quest to find the truth. Aparna Balamurali plays Abhirami, while Asif Ali is seen as journalist Aswin in this film, helmed by Drishyam director Jeethu Joseph.
Mehfil
Where to watch: Manorama Max
OTT release date: October 1, 2025
If you are tired of thrillers and mysteries, then opt for Mehfil, which is about a beautiful musical evening. The real-life tale of Mullassery Raju and his wife is depicted in the film, helmed by noted director Jayaraj. Another movie was made based on Mullassery Raju’s life - Devasuram, with Mohanlal bringing to life the iconic character of Mangalassery Neelakandan. But compared to the commercial elements of the 1993 film, Mehfil promises to be a quiet exploration of the once-feudal lord’s life.
