Breaking Down Every Film On The List
1. Vishwanath & Sons takes the top spot, and it’s easy to see why. Suriya plays an Olympic-medal-winning industrialist who turns to surrogacy in the U.S. after his son faces a medical emergency, only for the arrangement with surrogate Maddy (Mamitha Baiju) to spark an unexpected emotional bond. Directed by Venky Atluri, it’s already Suriya’s second-highest-grossing film.
2. 365 dni continues its long-running habit of resurfacing on charts years after release. The Polish romance drama, based on the bestselling novel, remains a curiosity-driven watch for viewers who keep clicking despite (or because of) its controversial reputation.
3. DC marks filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj’s surprising jump in front of the camera as lead actor. Directed by Arun Matheswaran and loosely inspired by Devdas, it follows an outlaw named Devadas whose path collides with two women caught in a violent world of crime and corrupt police. The film crossed ₹100 crore theatrically before landing on Sun NXT.
4. Dhamaal 4 brings back the franchise’s usual chaos, with Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, and Riteish Deshmukh chasing a mythical “Treasure of Life” through one slapstick misadventure after another. Critics were lukewarm, but the ensemble comedy still pulled a strong ₹224 crore worldwide and clearly has staying power on Netflix.
5. Plank Face is where the list takes a sharp turn. This low-budget indie horror follows a man dragged into the deep woods by a feral, isolated family determined to make him one of their own. It’s a cult favorite in backwoods-horror circles — not for the faint-hearted, and firmly built for genre fans rather than casual viewers.
6. Drawn Together is currently one of the biggest global streaming hits of the moment. Adapted from Mercedes Ron’s bestselling novel, it follows Marfil Cortés (Ester Expósito), a Spanish heiress in New York whose life unravels after a mysterious kidnapping, leading her father to hire bodyguard Sebastián Moore (Hugo Diego García) — and sparking tension that’s harder to keep professional than either of them expected.
7. Skin. Like. Sun. brings an arthouse sensibility to the list. This character-driven drama leans into quiet, intimate storytelling, the kind that MUBI’s audience typically seeks out over mainstream blockbusters.
8. Jana Nayagan carries extra emotional weight as Vijay’s farewell film before his full-time move into politics. The H. Vinoth-directed political action drama, a remake of the Telugu hit Bhagavanth Kesari, follows a retired police officer protecting his adopted ward from a dangerous global arms dealer. It became one of the year’s highest-grossing Tamil releases, and its ZEE5 run is clearly still drawing eyeballs weeks later.
9. Nude is a documentary exploring perceptions of nudity in fine art, following photographer David Bellemere as he shoots an art calendar for the NU Muses project. It’s less mainstream entertainment and more a meditation on art, body image, and creative process.
10. How to Have Sex rounds out the list with its raw, unfiltered look at a teenage friend group on a post-exam holiday, chasing a “perfect” summer that doesn’t go as planned. Its unflinching honesty about consent and coming-of-age pressure earned it major festival acclaim internationally.
What This Week’s Chart Tells Us?
Charts like this reflect real-time viewing behavior rather than marketing hype, pulled from aggregated data across streaming services in a given region. That’s what makes JustWatch’s weekly snapshot such a genuinely useful pulse-check — it shows what India is actually watching, not just what’s being pushed hardest.
This week’s spread is a reminder of how varied streaming taste has become: a big-budget Tamil political drama sitting next to an indie horror film, and a mainstream Bollywood comedy next to an arthouse documentary — all competing for the same screen time.
