Most-awaited Kannada OTT releases in November 2025 on JioHotstar, Prime Video, Zee5, Netflix, Sony LIV, Sun NXT

On the last day of October came the highest grossing Indian film of the year, Kantara Chapter 1. There were no major releases since, so, what’s in store in November

In the last 3 days of October, multiple big films were OTT bound – Dhanush’s Idli Kadai on Netflix, Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra on JioHotstar (via OTTplay Premium also) and, of course, the highest grossing Indian film of the year, Rishab Shetty’s Kantara Chapter 1 on Amazon Prime Video (available on OTTplay Premium with a top-up subscription). Kannada audiences also got a new web series – Maarigallu – to binge. Given that Kantara Chapter 1 released in theatres on October 2, there were a few Kannada films that came in the weeks thereafter, but most flew under the radar and went relatively unnoticed.

So, after the excitement of October, is there anything for Kannada audiences to look forward to?

Here are the Kannada films coming to OTT in November 2025

Ekka

Yuva Rajkumar’s much-awaited sophomore film, which released in theatres way back in July is finally coming to OTT. After much speculation about the platform it would drop on, including Amazon Prime Video and Zee5, it turns out that Sun Network has bagged both the digital and satellite rights of the film. Sun NXT has set a streaming date as well.

The film, directed by Rohit Padaki, had Yuva as a simpleton from a small-town, who is forced to head to Bengaluru to clear off a debt. While working as a cabbie, he ends up saving the life of a city gangster and, soon enough, gets to be a part of his gang. How this impacts his life forms the crux of the tale.

Streaming platform: Sun NXT
Streaming date: November 13, 2025

Brat

Shashank’s second consecutive film with Darling Krishna is in theatres from October 31, but the buzz is that since the pair’s earlier collaboration Kousalya Supraja Rama fared pretty well, it may get a 4-week OTT window and head to the same platform.

The film, meanwhile, is about a youngster from a lower middle-class family and how he tries to make a quick buck with cricket betting. Brat explores the fallout thereof. It also stars Achyuth Kumar, Ramesh Indira and Dragon Manju, while Manisha Kandkur is the romantic interest.

Streaming platform: TBA
Streaming date: Expected by end of November
