Psych Siddhartha locks OTT platform: Where to stream Shree Nandu's new age romantic drama

Shree Nandu has been struggling to score a hit for nearly a decade now and had pinned all his hopes on Psych Siddhartha, which hit the screens on January 1, 2026. Sadly, the romantic drama has ended up as a flop at the box office. Although it is still early to give a final verdict, the initial response has been poor.

Where to stream Psych Siddhartha?

We at OTTplay have learned that Aha has bagged the digital rights to the film for a fancy price and will stream it in the last week of January 2026. This means the romantic drama will be out on OTT within a month of its theatrical release. Once the film lands on Aha, you can also stream Psych Siddhartha on OTTplay Premium.

Who is the female lead in Psych Siddhartha?

While Shree Nandu played the main lead, Yaasmini Bhaskar made a comeback to Telugu cinema after a long gap. She plays a single mother in the film, and her performance has been appreciated by critics. Nandu also did well in his intense role as a man who becomes addicted to alcohol after being cheated on by his girlfriend.

What is the story of Psych Siddhartha?

Psych Siddhartha is a romantic drama about a man whose girlfriend cheats on him with his best friend. Deeply affected by this betrayal, he turns to alcohol. One day, he meets Yaasmini Bhaskar’s character, a single mother, and a bond develops between them. However, things take a turn when their pasts resurface and create new problems.

Why was Psych Siddhartha postponed?

The film was in production for a long time and was initially scheduled for release on December 12, 2025. However, it was postponed after Balakrishna’s Akhanda 2 also shifted its release to the same date. As a result, producer Rana Daggubati chose January 1, 2026, as the new release date.

Director Varun Reddy stated that the film’s old-school screenplay and editing style would offer a new experience to the audience. Unfortunately, this approach did not resonate, and the film ended up being a disappointment. 

However, such films often find better appreciation on OTT platforms due to their bold content. It remains to be seen how Psych Siddhartha performs once it begins streaming. Stay tuned for more updates.
