OTT Full Breakdown

Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord (JioHotstar, April 6) — The week kicks off with a dark corner of a galaxy far, far away. Set one year after the Clone Wars, this 10-episode animated series follows former Sith lord Maul as he attempts to rebuild his criminal empire on the remote planet Janix. Sam Witwer voices Maul, with Wagner Moura and Gideon Adlon rounding out a stellar cast. If The Clone Wars left you wanting more of Maul’s chilling ambition, this is your show.
Untold: Chess Mates (Netflix, April 7) — Remember when the chess world imploded in 2022? This documentary revisits the explosive cheating scandal between grandmasters Magnus Carlsen and Hans Niemann following the Sinquefield Cup. Directed by Thomas Tancred, it covers the media firestorm, Niemann’s legal battle, and their high-stakes 2024 rematch. Nail-biting stuff — even if you don’t know a rook from a bishop. Learn more about competitive chess on Wikipedia.

The Boys Season 5 (Prime Video, April 8) — The one everyone’s been counting down to. The final season of this genre-defining superhero satire pushes Butcher and his ragtag crew into a no-holds-barred clash with Homelander, now fully unleashed and more dangerous than ever. Expect darker twists, sharper political commentary, and an emotionally brutal finale. This is not just TV — it’s an event. For more on what to expect from the finale, check out our The Boys Season 5 deep-dive on TechnoSports.
Malcolm in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair (Hulu, April 8–10) — Two decades later and the chaos never stopped. Creator Linwood Boomer brings back almost the entire original cast — Frankie Muniz, Bryan Cranston, Jane Kaczmarek — for a four-episode revival set around Hal and Lois’s 40th wedding anniversary. Malcolm is now a single dad, estranged from his family, and being dragged right back into the madness. Nostalgic, warm, and presumably very loud.

Hacks Season 5 (HBO Max, April 9) — Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder return for the fifth and final season of one of the smartest comedies of the past decade. After erroneous news reports of Deborah Vance’s death spread, she and Ava head back to Las Vegas more determined than ever to cement her legacy — eventually taking their show all the way to Singapore. A fitting, hard-fought send-off for a series that earned every one of its Emmys.
Big Mistakes (Netflix, April 9) — Two deeply inept siblings, Nicky and Morgan, get blackmailed into the world of organised crime in this dark comedy. Trying to fulfil their late grandmother’s dying wish, they stumble into a web of trouble they’re wildly unprepared for. Think chaotic energy with a criminal twist.
O’Romeo (Prime Video, April 10) — Vishal Bhardwaj returns with a gritty, atmospheric crime drama set in 1990s Mumbai. Shahid Kapoor plays Hussain Ustara, a lethal hitman working for an intelligence officer, whose world shifts when a widow named Afshan (Triptii Dimri) approaches him to take down a powerful underworld don. Their professional alliance slowly evolves into something far more complicated. Inspired by the real-life story of Sapna Didi, this one has Bhardwaj’s fingerprints all over it — layered, violent, and deeply human. Catch our full preview of O’Romeo on TechnoSports.
Tu Yaa Main (Netflix, April 10) — Director Bejoy Nambiar delivers a survival thriller unlike anything in recent Bollywood memory. Adarsh Gourav plays a struggling rapper and Shanaya Kapoor plays a wealthy socialite — two Gen-Z influencers with nothing in common who find themselves trapped in an abandoned 20-foot-deep swimming pool in Goa. With a crocodile. Yes, really. What begins as a clashing-personalities rom-com turns into a genuinely terrifying fight for survival.
Thaai Kizhavi (JioHotstar, April 10) — Radhika Sarathkumar leads this crowd-pleasing Tamil comedy-drama about a sharp-tongued, iron-willed moneylender and matriarch who refuses to hand over her wealth to her greedy sons and son-in-law. When rumours spread that she is ill, they descend on her home expecting to inherit — only to find her very much alive, very much in control, and absolutely not sharing a rupee. A sharp, funny, deeply satisfying village drama.
Finding Harry: The Craft Behind the Magic (Streaming TBC, This Week) — As excitement builds for the upcoming Harry Potter series revival, this documentary takes viewers behind the curtain — exploring how sets were constructed, how actors were chosen, and what the creative process behind the beloved world looks like up close. Features exclusive cast interviews and a rare look at the new production. Essential viewing for Potterheads.
Euphoria Season 3 (HBO Max, April 12) — After a four-year wait, Sam Levinson’s provocative coming-of-age drama is finally back. Season 3 picks up five years after high school, with a time jump that thrusts characters into messy adulthood. Rue (Zendaya) is living in Mexico, Cassie and Nate are engaged in the suburbs, and everything feels like it’s quietly on the verge of collapse. The wait has been long — but based on early buzz, it’s absolutely worth it. Don’t miss our Euphoria Season 3 breakdown on TechnoSports.
