**1. Sing Geetham (Telugu) — June 11**

The most audacious film of the week, hands down. Veteran director Singeetam Srinivasa Rao — with Nag Ashwin co-producing — returns with a bold experimental vision: every single line of dialogue in this film is delivered as a song, creating a continuous, unbroken musical narrative. The story centres on Prathap, an outsider who arrives in a timeless village and gets caught between the pull of development and the weight of age-old traditions. For lovers of cinema that dares to try something different, this is essential viewing.

**2. Habeebi (Tamil) — June 12**

A period romantic drama set in the conservative neighborhoods of southern Tamil Nadu, *Habeebi* traces a forbidden love between two young people and the deep community fractures it triggers. Director Meera Kathiravan handles what sounds like an emotionally charged, socially rooted story with obvious sensitivity.

**3. Uttara (Kannada) — June 12**

A grounded domestic drama that doesn’t flinch from uncomfortable territory. Truck driver Bharat discovers his wife Sati is involved with another man, files for divorce — and finds the legal outcome favours her with alimony. Director Dinesh Baboo takes on a story about marital breakdown and its messy, unglamorous aftermath.

**4. Charukesi (Tamil) — June 12**

The most emotionally rich premise of the week. A legendary Carnatic singer begins losing his memories to Alzheimer’s — and as his world fades, buried family secrets and a fractured bond with his son are forced into the open. In the end, music becomes the last bridge between them. Director Suresh Krissna brings together a veteran cast including Sathyaraj and Suhasini Maniratnam for what looks like a deeply moving family drama.

**5. Police Complaint (Telugu) — June 12**

A pregnant woman dies during a suspected black magic ritual, and a determined officer reopens a long-buried case. As seemingly disconnected events begin to converge, the darkness beneath the surface refuses to stay hidden. Naveen Chandra and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar lead this suspense-heavy crime thriller that promises plenty of twists.

**6. Graamaayana (Kannada) — June 11**

Set against an earthy, rustic rural backdrop, *Graamaayana* follows Seena — nicknamed “Sixth Sense” for his razor-sharp instincts — as he navigates village life, local conflicts, and the dynamics that hold communities together and pull them apart. Vinay Rajkumar leads in what looks like a grounded, culturally rich entertainer.

**7. Varavu (Malayalam) — June 12**

The most intriguing slow-burn of the week. One incident in a hillside town changes many lives. Years later, the past resurfaces — and one man returns to reclaim what was taken from him. What starts as personal becomes something far larger: a full reckoning that will determine the town’s fate. Director Shaji Kailas brings Joju George and Arjun Ashokan together in a film that promises layered tension and emotional weight.
