📱 ‘Logout’: A Gen-Z Nightmare Fueled by Obsession
Streaming on ZEE5, Logout is a contemporary psychological thriller that hits where it hurts—the digital age.

But when his phone—the epicenter of his career—is stolen by an obsessed fan, his curated reality crumbles. Directed by Amit Golani and written by Biswapati Sarkar, the film explores identity, dependency on virtual validation, and the terrifying consequences of overexposure in the digital age.
💔 Love, Laughter & Amnesia in ‘Mere Husband Ki Biwi’
Mere Husband Ki Biwi, a romantic comedy on JioHotstar, redefines the love triangle trope with a hilarious twist. Arjun Kapoor plays Ankur, a man stuck between his past and present when his ex-wife, played by Bhumi Pednekar, reappears suffering from retrograde amnesia.

Mudassar Aziz delivers a light-hearted yet emotionally layered rom-com that’s perfect for weekend laughs.
🥊 ‘Daveed’: Action Meets Emotion in ZEE5’s Gritty Sports Drama
Daveed is not your average action flick. Directed by Govind Vishnu, it follows Ashiq Abu (Antony Varghese), a bouncer with a bruised past who is forced into the ring against a merciless Turkish boxer, played by Mo Ismail. Streaming on ZEE5, the film dives deep into masculinity, redemption, and the sheer will to fight—not just in the ring, but in life. The emotional gravity and high-octane action make Daveed a must-watch for fans of gritty sports dramas.
🌍 The Post-Apocalyptic Return of ‘The Last of Us Season 2’
Five years after the first season’s events, The Last of Us Season 2 arrives on JioHotstar with heightened tension and emotional complexity. Bella Ramsey’s Ellie and Pedro Pascal’s Joel return, navigating fractured bonds and rising dangers in a world that’s grown even colder. The arrival of Abby, played by Kaitlyn Dever, throws fuel on a slow-burning fire, and fans can expect emotionally charged storytelling with the same cinematic brilliance that made Season 1 a global hit.
🐎 Western Romance Reimagined in Netflix’s ‘Ransom Canyon’
If sweeping landscapes and fierce family feuds are your thing, Ransom Canyon on Netflix will capture your heart.

The show is a tribute to old-school storytelling with modern-day sensibilities.
👧 ‘The Stolen Girl’—Every Parent’s Worst Nightmare
In The Stolen Girl, a mini-series directed by Eva Husson and streaming on JioHotstar, suspense grips from the start. Adapted from Alex Dahl’s novel, the story follows Elisa, whose daughter vanishes after a seemingly innocent playdate. The mother’s frantic search uncovers dark truths, as the mysterious Rebecca Walsh (Holliday Grainger) disappears without a trace. The show is a chilling exploration of trust, motherhood, and how easily things can spiral out of control.
🔍 ‘The Glass Dome’: A Haunting Return to Past Trauma
A unique Swedish thriller on Netflix, The Glass Dome tells the story of Lejla Ness, a criminologist who must confront the darkness of her own kidnapping to solve another.

🕌 Cultural Clashes in ‘Istanbul Encyclopedia’
Set in the lively chaos of Istanbul, this Turkish drama centers on Zehra and Nesrin—two women from vastly different worlds forced to coexist.
