Kammattam, the Malayalam thriller web series, has finally made its way to the digital space. Starring actor Sudev Nair in the lead role of a police inspector, Kammattam is now streaming on Zee5 via OTTplay Premium. The series promises a gripping tale, with some good performances.
The latest Malayalam series Kammattam made its digital premiere on Zee5 and OTTplay Premium at midnight on September 4, 2025. Director Shan Thulasidharan has helmed this series, which was initially supposed to be released on August 29, 2025, but was postponed to September 5. And then just this week, the release date was advanced by a day. You can watch the series now in Malayalam with English subtitles.
Kammattam is Zee5’s first original Malayalam series, and the narrative is inspired by real incidents from central Kerala.
The series follows a team of police officers as they probe the death of Samuel Umman, (played by noted director-actor Jeo Baby). The investigation, which is led by Inspector Antonio George ( Sudev Nair), leads to exposing a financial fraud linked to a cooperative bank.
Ajay Vasudev, Jins Baskar, and Akhil Kavalayoor, play other key roles in the series, along with Bigg Boss 6 winner Sreerekha, Arun Sol and Jordy Poojar.

If Kammattam had released on August 29, 2025, it would have clashed with filmmaker Krishand’s series The Chronicles of the 4.5 Gang, which is Sambhava Vivaranam Nalara Sangham. The series, which is streaming on SonyLiv via OTTplay Premium, follows the story of five youngsters from the slum area of Thiruvanchipuram as they get involved in illegal dealings of flower and milk. Prior to 4.5 Gang, the thriller series Kerala Crime Files: The Search for CPO Ambili Raju was released on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium. Led by Arjun Radhakrishnan, the series also features Indrans, Harisree Ashokan, Lal and Aju Varghese.
